I would never say investing it and doing better isn't possible or get mad about it.
You could have taken the money and gone to the casino or invested in some high risk stock and done massively better than the purchase, anything's possible. I haven't seen anyone say it isn't. One thing to consider when looking at potential return on anything is the amount of risk, paying something off early is a zero risk return and no taxes on what you save.
I think you are saying the constant 3-4 year lease is better than the purchase of the new car every 3-4 years and I think you can come out ahead on the lease.
