2011 e92 lease end options: special release vs. buy vs. bail

olyashok · 07-15-2013, 05:14 PM

I want an M4. I have 2011 M3 Coupe with lease expiring beg of Oct. It has (or will by October) 45000 miles on it and residual on the lease is $41,880.75. BMW proposes a special 12m release deal (which you can get in last 60 days of the lease), which can be terminated when M4 comes out (July or so according to them). Maintenance can be had for 2y/50k for $3295. Warranty for 1y/20k can be had for $2800(drivetrain)-$4500k (platinum).

Seems like to wait for M4 will cost me $6k in service on top of lease. Is buying this car for $41,880.75 w/o service a good deal?

What would you do?
- Do special release w/o warranty/maintenance?
- Do special release with warranty/maintenance?
- Buy and wait
- Pick another car (what I am meaning towards)....

i think paying 41k for your car is a good deal. most 2011s are going from above 50k although have less miles.
