Since you asked, at the time there were exactly 0.00 unsold 6MT F80s in the country. The F80 had been out of production for 7 months.
My previous F80 lease was up, and I was over my miles by 33,000 miles. The buy out was $45k, the car was worth far less with 78k miles on it. It would have been financial suicide to buy the car. I was lured into the CS by test driving it, and it blows away a comp pack in handling and looks (as you well know being a fellow CS owner). I knew I would be in the car briefly because the G80 test mules were already long-since spotted so i did a quick 2 year lease. It was fun...for 2 weeks. Then I really started missing the manual.
