I am near lease end. My 330i rwd is loaded, pristine and under 6000 total miles. My buyout price is almost 28k plus doc fees and tax. In my research [thanks for the advice hackers] I have found almost similar cars nationwide listed at approx. 33k, though all had higher mileage, so I would have a similar value to that if I were to buyout the lease. None of the handful of buyout quotes I got online have been that appealing, taking into consideration the added time and hassle. The dealership has informed me that THEIR buyout price would be 30k if they were to buy it from BMWFS. They said it would be the same for all dealers. I’ve heard people here say to get buyout quotes from several local dealers. It’s a great car but I’m hesitant to buy a car that is so expensive to maintain. Would I get possibly higher prices by checking with other dealers or should I simply turn it in?
