She might have a KBB of 30K with clean title but that would drop to 20K with a reconstructed title. I think this guy has a case of the wishful thinking, but it gives you and idea what you will be up against.
Ya. As I'm doing my research I'm finding that. But I decided to go a different route with a different car. These cars are just too new. Ill give it a few years when miles start tacking up and the price comes down. Thanks for the ideas guys.

Go for it! I have a 2011 Ls salvage title and run like a gem. The only problem with buying them is how well the person put the car back together. I deal with cars and you can tell if it's a bad job or not, by the spacing in the lining of the cars or the rubbing noise the car will make as you accelerate and turn at the same time. Just depends on the type of work they did to fix it. I say to get it and if it's not what you were expecting just flip it. You learned your lesson if anything.
