I'm considering a new bmw and was wondering if it's better to lease or purchase bimmers.

I've had a lease before and I found it stressful returning the car at the end of the lease.

Is bmw picky with lease returns... I'm sure we've all heard the horror stories about lease returns and huge bills for tires and 'other' damage.

Here in Ontario the lease rate and finance rate is the same. Payment amount really isn't an issue for me but moving from a reliable Japanese brand to bmw I don't know what to expect with respect to bmw reliability and repair costs after the warranty expires.
