Based off those figures, for a X5M that costs $98,025, I would be looking at $1,714.32 a month for a 3yr/15k lease with 5k down. Total lease cost would be $67,166 with a $41,532 depreciation, $15,088 finance charge and a $51,496 residual.
Yeah, my 4.8is actually looks a lot better now. hmmm maybe I won't pull the trigger on the X5M.

Actually, in terms of lease deals, it's not that crappy.
52%-55% residuals is still better than most other car residuals. and a 6.6% interest rate is also not horrible.
No, it's not amazing rates, but they're not god awful either. Audi "S" car rates are a lot worst than that.
Also, don't put all that unnecessary crap on the car.. $6k for ventilated, Merino leather seats.. Are you kidding me? If you don't have it, you'll never miss it.
Also, don't pay MSRP.. Wait until you can find one at a reasonable price over invoice.
In other words, Chop $10k off the purchase price and recognize that any high line car is going to have the same, if not worse, lease rates..
Having said all that, keep your 4.8is.. It's an amazing truck..
But the numbers your posting are highly skewed towards the buyer who is just throwing money at the dealers instead of playing it smart.
