If you like the car so much just lease a new E63, the lease rates seem pretty favorable now.

I agree you should just get a new E63 when your lease is over.

Who is your leasing bank? If its Chase you can steal it because they negotiate and part of their buyout calculations include auctions numbers. My lease ends in March of 2008 but I am allowed to start the process per Chase, 180 days before term so in September I will buy the car- right now I would be getting a 10k discount on my residual. This is all based on having Chase as your lender. They dont want the cars back to go thru the auction line.

Go for the E63 lease deal that Vadim mentioned. Can't go wrong with that.
