I was in the same boat with the same car (ZHP and all), but I had no interest in turning it in or letting it go, so I bought it out after my last lease payment. To me, it just shows how much BMW subsidizes their leases with over inflated residuals typically. In the past, it never really made sense to buy out your lease without an extra discount, because the residual/buyout was typically higher than the market value. Now its about equal with the value of used cars.
So in the end, i didn't feel like i got a smoking deal by buying out my lease, but I also didnt feel like I was overpaying.
