Hence, I would have been paying less than financing for 3 years and I could get back some of my money for selling the car for more than the buyout amount.

Is the buyout amount purely based on the residual or is it different?
Also note that the online configurator for the lease looks nothing like the one the dealer will build...There is like $200-$300 difference in monthly payment because of taxes, which starts to look way too close to financing at that point and not worth it...
