Answer 1

I think you should use checkout_cart_product_add_after event for this, in this event you will get quote_item (added product into the cart by the customer).

So first you need to create events.xml , in this file you need to define your event

<event name="checkout_cart_product_add_after">
        <observer name="change_price_add_to_cart" instance="Example\Sample\Observer\ChangePrice" />
</event>

Now you need to create your Observer so you can change your price,

<?php

namespace Example\Sample\Observer;

use Magento\Framework\Event\Observer;
use Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface;

class ChangePrice implements ObserverInterface
{

    public function execute(Observer $observer)
    {
        $item = $observer->getEvent()->getData('quote_item');
        $item = ( $item->getParentItem() ? $item->getParentItem() : $item );
        $customerPrice = 9.99; //do your magic here for custom price
        $item->setCustomPrice($customerPrice);
        $item->setOriginalCustomPrice($customerPrice);
        $item->getProduct()->setIsSuperMode(true);
    }
}

Answer 2

Yes, you can set that custom price using Event. See how to use Events and observers checkout magento link https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.3/extension-dev-guide/events-and-observers.html

Run an observer on the event on checkout_cart_product_add_after and set custom price which is post from form. Magento has store add to cart form posted fields value at Quote item object's buying request method $quoteItem->getBuyRequest().At your observer, you can get that custom price input field value easily than using quote item setCustomPrice() method you can set your custom price.

<?php
    namespace Devbera\CarPrice\Observer;

    use Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface;
    use Magento\Framework\App\RequestInterface;

    class CustomPrice implements ObserverInterface
    {
        public function execute(\Magento\Framework\Event\Observer $observer) {
            $quoteItem = $observer->getEvent()->getData('quote_item');         
            $quoteItem = ( $quoteItem->getParentItem() ? $quoteItem->getParentItem() : $quoteItem );
        $buyRequest = $quoteItem->getBuyRequest();
            if (is_object($buyRequest)) {
                $buyRequestArray = $buyRequest->toArray();

                if (array_key_exists('custom_price_field', $buyRequestArray)) {
            $price = $buyRequestArray['custom_price_field'];
            $item->setCustomPrice($price);
            $item->setOriginalCustomPrice($price);
            $item->getProduct()->setIsSuperMode(true);
                }
            }       

        }

    }
