E55 future value
Ok guys, anyone have a crystal ball?? 
Here is my question..
What do you think a fully optioned 2006 E55 will be worth 3 years from now, assuming it will have 85,000 miles on it, at that point?? So were talking 6/2011.
over/under $23,000?? Thats my number, as to weather it makes sense to "lease" a used car or not..
All things assumed.. (i.e., new Eclass will be out by then, and E63's will probably be down in the low $40's-high $30's,etc,etc)

Thanks guys.. A lease(used car) and buy payments are coming in right around the same monthly amount for a 36mo. term(the lease) vs. a 60 month term(the buy). There are pro's and cons to both..
On the buy.. Adfter 36months of paying on it. I would still owe about $23-$25k.. So, as long as the car is worth that in 3 years. I'll be ok..
But looking at W210 E55 values, is enough to make someonme sick.. You can buy a nice 01' E55 wth 80k miles, for LOW teens now.. Its crazy the amount of car your getting for that money.. No, its not a "kompressor" car. But still.. TEENS, for an E55?? Thats nuts..
