My big question is: If BMW thought these cars were really going to hold their value, wouldn't they incentivize leases so they could sell them twice? Lease rates like this virtually guarantee that BMW will see a low percentage of used M2 sales. And according to what some think about the M2's residual potential, they'd be foolish to miss out on that market.

I think this is BMW saying what they think the car will really be worth in 3 years' time, personally. YMMV.
