2024 Buick Envision — pPI found $1,800 of upcoming work

2024 Buick Envision Avenir, about 28,000 miles. Inspection found several real maintenance items but nothing catastrophic. I still like the car. Do you treat the shop estimate as a dollar-for-dollar negotiation point or just decide whether the asking price still makes sense?

I would not stare at the monthly. If one piece looks too good on the 2024 Buick Envision, hunt doc fees, accessories, and the APR next. Screenshot the worksheet if you can. Verbal 'we'll take care of it' is not a plan. I'm keeping receipts and dates in one folder.

Agree — and I'd add this: Ask for out-the-door on the 2024 Buick Envision with fees, add-ons, and rate on separate lines. If they balk, that's your answer. I'd want that in writing, not as a promise. I'll post OTD once I have two apples-to-apples sheets.
