I lease perpetually except for our X7 which we had to buy as the lack of programs and awful money factors meant that our monthly payment would have increased by 50%, just wasn't worth it. And the X7 LCI was so gentle that it doesn't feel like we're in an old car. Will probably hold onto it until the extended warranty runs out, then lease another one when, hopefully, the financials come down to Earth.
As for the 4 Series, negotiated that lease 18 months after the X7 attempt and things had improved a bit, so I'm about to transition from an F33 into a G26 this month. I like always being in a new BMW and I don't mod, so it's just more fresh and convenient this way.
