Is it natural and correct to say do a particular amount of money on something meaning to pay or receive money for a service? For example:
The most I can do on that car is 1000 dollars.
By that I mean the most can sell the car for is 1000 dollars.
If it's not natural, would you please tell if it is more natural to swap on out for for there?
When in the context of a purchase, I would definitely agree with you that swapping out the "on" for "for" would sound more natural and correct.
The most I can do for that car is 1000 dollars.
