If you're that worried about the depreciation I dont think BMW is the right car for you. The first owner (the dealer) already took the largest hit for you.

top ten vehicles that hold resale value the best:
Top 10
1. Toyota Prius
2. Mini Cooper
3. Scion xB
4. BMW M3
5. Lexus RX
6. BMW 6-Series
7. Lexus GXA
8. Acura TSX
9. Scion Xa
10. Honda Civic
They are ALL toyotas, BMWS, Hondas... i bet the list continues on with similar vehicles from the same companies.
anyway, i would buy used, lease new. a car is a terrible investment and should never be considered as such, unless you are buying a 69 camaro SS or a SL350 Gullwing. if you can afford it, and it is the car you want. get it. but i would search the used market largely for a "purchase"
