Buy out or pay the mileage?

I have a lease on a 1999 9-3. The 39-month lease comes up in October 2001. I really like the car but I'm unsure if I want to keep it because money is a little tight. Also my wife has an Audi TT roadster which I get to drive a lot and it seems overly extravagant to have two expensive cars like that. I am a travelling salesman so my mileage will be high (85,000 - 90,000 miles on a 48,750 mile lease). The mileage charge would be about $6,000. The thing is that same amount will be the difference between what I would pay for the car and it's worth at that time ($18,500 vs. $12,500). I've taken really good care of the car and I think it will last a while, but I'm thinking I might be better off paying the mileage and getting about a $4,000 used car and just get my driving kicks here and there with my wife's car. Any thoughts?
