Had 2012 c63 (pics) inspected, advice on these following "slight wear" issues?

Im going to buy this guy's c63 coupe. Its 2012 with 68k and has CPO for another year. Owner said he can pull service records from dealership before I purchase it. Did the inspection today at a well known euro shop. Here are the results:



I asked the owner of the shop (who oversaw the inspection), "how much is the short term cost to fix these issues", and he said it's less than one thousand. Was he being honest with me? With just these items listed, is the car in "excellent condition"?

Obligatory pics of car:

Those items listed are not expensive and should not be a reason to turn down a deal if the price is right . Yes the dealer prices will be more then aftermarket , but nothing here is rocket science. Buy it , it looks sick .

Thanks. Definitely buying it. Just wanted to make sure the inspection shop didnt give me a wild quote to fix those items.

Looks good expected things for the mileage, all are easy diy and wouldn't worry about the bushing for a while.

Looks completely normal for a five year old car with 40K miles. Those aren't issues at all imo.

I would ask if the transmission fluid flush has been done as the car would be due for that and it's a good $500.
