Presuming that you don't put huge miles on it I would say buy vs lease for an RS.1.
Contrary to what the Release haters on here think, these cars will likely hold their value much better than a base model. If you are leasing then you lose that value at the end of the term since the buy out price (if you want to keep it) is the same no matter what the value is.
So you need to think of these things:
1) Do you put loads of miles on your car? = Buy
2) Do you plan on changing vehicles after the lease period? = Lease
3) Do you plan on modding? = Buy
4) Not sure which way you want to go down the road? = Lease and buy out at end (not the best choice but an option)

Ah thanks Tcoat, #4 is the route I am planning. What's wrong with Lease and buy out at the end?
