Leasing is not more expensive than financing if you get a good deal.

My lease is for 3 years and 45,000 miles, and currently a 3 year old E90 with 45,000 miles sells for far less (which means it depreciated more) than what my down + monthly for 3 years will be. Plus, I get a new car every 3 years that's 100% free under BMW's maintenance plan. There's no point in keeping a BMW for 6-7 years and having it be worth peanuts (look at E46 330i prices now) unless you absolutely love the car and plan on keeping it forever.
