Now this is interesting as everything I read before entering my lease with BMWFS is that they now have a hardline policy that the residual value cannot be negotiated by the original buyer for a lease buyout. Are dealers still able to do so? I'm curious as I'd likely buy out my M850i lease if I can negotiate the residual value. Based on what I know today from researching prior to the lease my only option is to turn it in and then have a friend purchase it outright (I'll supply the $) with the purchase price obviously fully negotiable at that time.
