I understand the point about building equity with financing but if I plan to buy the car at the end of the lease does it really make a difference?
You're in a better financial position if you have more assets - you own more. Beyond that ... it sounds like you're set on the lease.

One more thing before you go with that though - consider the interest rate on the $32k buyout. That's not chump change and definitely adds money to the end result.
