Not a chance. Wait till she's on her 3rd tranny, then maybe.

My dealer bought my .02 TL-S back at full retail price ($28k) at the time after the replacement tranny failed. That was when the car was 10 months old with 17k miles on it though. Also, it was not Acura who bought it back, but the Acura DEALER who sold it to me. You leave out a lot of details like the year of the car, whether it was bought new or used, how many miles are on it, etc.
