I always find this type of comment interesting. Perhaps I'm missing something but if you have the money to buy a car (and don't need to finance) does leasing still make sense in this type of scenario?

BMW shouldn't be using residuals that are higher then what a trade-in would be right?

When you lease you are definitely paying finance charges, and there are lease inception charges etc right?

I attempted to spreadsheet this out when I bought mine in December, but I didn't understand leasing enough to calc the finance charges.
