Time to adjust your expectations if you're in the 75% residual camp.

can you dumb down what this means in laymen terms for me? (im not too lease term savvy with residual and what not)

ive been hoping they would eventually adjust the lease rates so it would actually be financially feasible to lease a M2 unlike how it is now..

thank you!
It means he "thinks" that when the M2 CS comes out, nobody will want a regular M2 and the values will drop and thus a 3 year old M2 will suddenly only be worth only $26K.

and just typing this is making me laugh.

Because, this is the same kind of nonsense people were saying about 1M values with the M2 on the horizon.
