Chrisny - great response and info.
I'm coming up on the end of my first lease and trying to figure out my options. While I know if I was going to buy the car out, it would have been best to purchase in the first place vs lease - but I've become attached to the 2011 335is and considering buying out when my lease ends.
Based on what I've researched - the residual or buyout price is actually related to the MSRP - NOT the negotiated price of the vehicle - which kind of sucks. Granted with a lease in VA - all of the car tax is paid during the lease, so if I purchase the vehicle there will be no additional tax. Is there any room for negotiation? will the vehicle go through a CPO process, or is that extra?
I probably need to search the forums regarding buyout strategies and options - but wanted to get any additional advice from you since you seem to have a lot of knowledge/experience in working with BMW leases.
