New cars for my wife too. I only ever drive used, including Porsche. I have even bought two jeep wranglers and a pick up truck with reconstructed titles. I wouldn't buy a Porsche or other higher end car with a reconstructed title but with the wranglers, I drove each of them for more than a year and sold them for more than I paid. And yes, the buyers knew about the reconstructed titles.

I've bought 2 new Porsches and dozens of used ones. I refuse to buy another new Porsche until a 100,000 mile 10 year drivetrain warranty is available.
