What are your opinions on Leasing vs Financing ?

I found the BMW X5 I want. It is the last new 2006 4.8is, Black Sapphire. I have the option of leasing the vehicle or financing, let me explain my car buying history.

I have owned five new cars so far, out of four of those they were either financed or cash bought, and I would sometimes get myself into trouble by trading them in too early while I still owed on them, where as the one vehicle I leased I couldnt trade it in, or thought I couldnt, and that is the only car I kept the longest, and actually bought out at the end of the lease. For me it seems the lease is good to keep my out of trouble and not itching to trade her two years into a new car.

What are your opinions ? This will also mean the end of my sports car phase I have had an E39 M5, and a new Corvette. Every time I go to a BMW dealer though, I just wet myself at the new M5, that car really does it for me, maybe not the best looking car in the world, but getting behind that steering wheel, and no car can beat that feel, while also driving four adult's in total comfort.
