> I would pay someone, who is known to be highly experienced, to come with me to the dealership (or however they operate) and make sure I get the best possible deal when leasing or buying it (new BMW X4MC), and trading in my current car (BMW X3 M40i), and meeting a few other specific needs.

What value are they going to provide, especially when they know you have given away all your leverage by revealing you want this exact unit?

Pay sticker and pretend they did you a solid by avoiding a markup?

Not get lowballed on trade? [You should already know what it’s worth.](https://forum.leasehackr.com/t/topic/396451/1)

Recommend buy over lease when programs are bad? Already established in your last thread.

Which of the above sounds like value-added to you?
