At the moment it's just me, my wife, and our dog and we take the 135i about 95% of the time. Space has never been an issue unless the in-laws are over. She drives an FX35 and we rarely drive it on the weekends. I find AWD and SUVs in general to be complete overkill. I have never been as happy with a car as I am with the 135i... at a close second is my GTI.

I didn't take your response as dissuasion. I'm in the same boat as you. I've had my coupe for 2 years and I can count on one hand how many times someone has ridden in the back. I'd really rather have a 2 seater if I could pull it off, but I do take a lot of weekend trips with the wife and the pooch. Basically, a 911 would be perfect, but it's just a touch pricey for me.
I really want a Cayman so bad that I thought about figuring some way to strap a dog bed on the parcel shelf over the engine (where the cargo net is in this pic:
