39 Months: plugging the numbers in for a 39 month lease would increase my deal for my build by only $27 per month. That's an uplift of 2.8% per my current monthly lease based on Oct residuals. Not the end of the world...
Again, check w/ your CA to confirm if you're already locked for October's residuals. I double checked with mine and I'm still good for Oct even though I don't pick my ED M5 up until Nov 21st.
Good luck!

The cost of registering your car for 1 year for 3 months of use should be factored in. One way or another you are getting shafted. Its going to be either $125 per month or ~ $3600 of depreciation (additional 3 payments 36 vs 39). Just depends how you like it. 36 month would be better to save against the 4th year of DMV registration costs.
