I don't know anything about Selmer instruments, but Buffet Prestige models seem to be a bit overly expensive and unnecessary for a 13-year-old, in my opinion. Why not look at the non-Prestige professional-level models? I've known a number of professional players who just play basic R13's.
Of course, nothing you hear here is a good substitute for talking to a professional teacher in person, preferably one who can listen to her play and aid in the selection process.
I would also echo weberfan's suggestion of play-testing various instruments at a reputable music store and/or by mail, as even instruments of the same make/model can vary greatly in quality and specific characteristics.
