Question Is it fair to negotiate ...

Looking for a Boxster & have small budget. Found a '99 with 55,000 miles well kept .
Current owner has it for ten years . In doing a quick inspection I noticed some overspray, car had some paint work - owner said when he bought it car fax showed an accident back in '02. Ok I can get by this , car drove well etc.

But the 800 lb gorilla in the room - ims not changed. Asking price is $10,500
Local shop that is a Porsche specialist can do bearing,rms & oil change for about $2100 (seems fair). My question is would it be fair to adjust price to $8500 assuming nothing else is discovered in the ppi ? I don't like to haggle but I would do the work if purchasing car. To pay asking price then lay out another $2100 seems a bit much for a 1999 non S
