My math worked out very similarly. I would have stuck with the F31 if I had figured the Tesla costing more in TCO.
Is Model 3 single motor RWD even available now? His should be a dual motor too, but your comment should encourage him to check if his has factory defect that causes only one motor to work(jk).

His experience has been very positive on EV. His wife is driving the 330i now but may switch to a Bolt or Leaf just for the 0-20/0-30 instant torque, and also to spread out the risk just in case Tesla can't make it.
