Buying used outright: I'll use my scenario, I bought a 2016 M4 for 57,500 taxes in. In four or five years lets say I put 10,000 KILOMETRES. year on the car it will have under 90,000 kilometres at the end of that term. I think its safe to assume that based on current values and even what e92's are going for that my car will still be worth atleast 40k. 57,500-40,000 = $17,500 ownership cost over four years (Not including maintenance and mods and other stuff of course.)

How is one not better than the other? Sure I could blow the motor up or something devastating could happen to the vehicle but scenarios like that are not all that likely and are still probably cheaper then what a lease would cost.
I have fed you enough for today.
