Contacted PenFed and got their balloon payment financing (final payment due in 36 months). I will therefore pay off the lease and start paying PenFed.

Now, what was the benefit of doing it that way? My monthly payments went up $7, however my residual or final payment in the end will be almost 9k LESS than with the BMW lease. About 37k after 36 months.

I think the car will be worth more at that point. However I will likely keep it for another 1-2 years after that.
This is very interesting. Can you please elaborate a little more on the details and how this works? Excuse my ignorance.
