Thanks for letting me take a closer look, Sarah. On the test drive, I noticed the engine's a bit noisier than expected, especially when accelerating, and the tires look pretty worn.

Hmm, I haven't really noticed the engine noise much myself. As for the tires, they're still within legal tread depth, but I agree they'll probably need replacing in the next few months.
English
嗯，我倒没怎么注意到发动机噪音。至于轮胎，它们的胎面深度还在合法范围内，但我同意可能未来几个月就需要更换了。

Right. Given those two points, I'm thinking about the cost of repairs. A new set of tires alone would be several hundred dollars, and I'd want a mechanic to check out that engine noise. Would you be open to adjusting the price down a bit?
English
是的。考虑到这两点，我在考虑维修费用。光是一套新轮胎就要好几百美元，而且我希望找个技师检查一下发动机噪音。你是否愿意把价格再调低一点？

Well, John, I've already priced the car very competitively for its age and mileage. It's been meticulously maintained otherwise. What kind of adjustment are you thinking of?
English
嗯，约翰，考虑到这辆车的车龄和里程数，我已经把价格定得很优惠了。除了这些，它一直都保养得很好。你打算调整多少呢？
中文翻译

John
第 5 轮
I'd estimate at least $800 to cover the tires and have the engine looked at properly. Would you consider knocking $700 off the asking price?
English
我估算至少需要800美元来更换轮胎并妥善检查发动机。你是否考虑在要价上少700美元？
中文翻译
👩
Sarah
第 6 轮
That's a pretty significant reduction. I can't go quite that low. How about if I come down by $300 to help with the tires, and you can handle the engine check yourself after purchase?
English
那是一个相当大的降幅。我不能降那么多。这样吧，我降300美元，帮你承担一部分轮胎费用，发动机检查就由你购买后自行处理，怎么样？
中文翻译

John

I appreciate the offer, but the engine noise is a bigger concern for me than just the tires. It sounds like something that could potentially lead to a larger repair bill down the line. Could you meet me halfway at $500 off?
English
我很感谢你的提议，但发动机噪音对我来说比轮胎更让我担心。这听起来将来可能会导致更高的维修费用。我们能各退一步，折价500美元吗？

Hmm, $500 off... Let me think. Okay, John. For a quick sale, I’m willing to agree to $500 off the original asking price. Deal?
English
嗯，降500美元……让我想想。好吧，约翰。为了尽快售出，我同意在原要价基础上降价500美元。成交吗？
