10k 58%
So I would assume 58% and be pleasantly surprised if it's higher. The current 65% (36/10kyr) rate is among the highest BMW has ever offered for a 36 month lease for any of their models. It isn't going to last, and I expect that (partly) the reason is that this LCI refresh for the M3 will be more than just some LED taillights. The 2016 M3's model code is 8M93, while the current one is 3C93. That means it will be a significant change. At 65%/71% (36/24 month), BMW doesn't want many 2015's left on the lot when the 2016's come out.

Great. That would make my decision really easy not to lease  |
+1 I calculated my cost of leasing vs financing over 3 years and leasing came out 5-7k more expensive. I don't really have the space for two cars and I'd want to keep a paid off car if I leased anyways. I'll likely keep the car through the build cycle and drive for a year or so with no payment and then buy another.
If I owned a business and lived in a state that didn't tax the entire car price on a lease then I'd definitely lease though.
