Leasing we never pay to fix anything. Just tires and gas.

If you keep the M5 9 years, or 3 lease cycles, you are so far ahead, repairs won’t matter. Plus, you can sell the car at the end and probably get $30k. Go look at prices of a 2012 M5 now.
Even if you only keep the car 6 years, you’re still likely ahead of an average lease. You can do the math.
Leasing is the most expensive way to drive a car. You’re essentially renting it.
Now, you get a huge benefit. New car every 3 years, no maintenance, always driving the latest thing, etc...but you’re paying dearly for that privilege.
If you buy an M5 and sell it in 3-5 years, leasing is better. But doing that would just be stupid.
