Lease programs on the M2 are atrocious, you will have to buy it. BMW knows they don't need to subsidize it sell them so the residuals are crazy low. If the 1M is any indicator though, resale will stay strong even if there is an LCI/CS model so you're probably ok to buy. I think there are some dealers at MSRP now but some are still adding markup and allocations are still not plentiful. No special incentives but if you work for a qualifying company you can get a $2500 fleet discount on a purchase ($1500 on lease).

That is the first test I've read of the 124 Spyder that's even vaguely complimentary.
I forgot about the non-defeatable rev matching on the BMW. Laaame. That's a deal breaker. The clear takeaway to me is "buy a 987." |

Here's an idea, Theo:
http://www.bmwseattle.com/used/BMW/2...3acc8454a0.htm Get this one CPO'ed. Negotiate a deal with them that includes trading your M5 in for the sales tax break and them immediately selling it to LIP for trade value + doc costs. Everybody wins. Edit: I like this one in Gaithersburg, MD too. Red over cloth http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...&modelCode1=M3
