Selling Price - Depreciation = Residual Value no matter what. In the simplest of terms, you buy a car, it depreciates, you sell it for it's residual value. The net cost is still depreciation. The same thing goes for a lease, you lease it, your payment is largely dependent on the depreciation.

If the lease depreciation outperforms real world depreciation, then the lease is the smarter option if you want to get a new car every 3 years.
Yea agreed and the average new car buyer trades his 4 year old car for peanuts(even though he bought it for tens of thousands more) to the dealer for an even more expensive new one.
