Wow, some scary comments in this thread. That said...
Leasing guarantees your upside. I could have "purchased" or "financed" my M5. Alas it would have been worth about $45k on trade at the end of 36 months. Instead it was valued at $62k. So had I purchased the car instead if renting it, I would have been $17k worse off.
Now granted, I don't have a crystal ball, but I do think gas prices will continue to rise, a new x6m will be out in 3 years, and M cars depreciate like a rock after 3 years. So I personally would consider leasing, even if it wasn't a company lease. Just my 2 cents.
