My wife's 335 had a buy out of $28,500 at the end of the lease. My sales guy (Shaw New Century), bought the car from BMWFS for $23,000 and sold it to me for around $24,250 after an "inspection" that was maybe 30 minutes since the car was fine. He made $1,000, the service people made around $250 and I saved around 4,000.

How do you get this information? Wouldn't BMWFS be better off keeping their mouth shut and pocketing the difference?
