Early 850s have occasional valve and other problems (pre-1996 cars are best avoided, which is probably most of the cars in your friends budget) and they all need a $1,000 a/c fix sooner or later... the Turbo is a screamer, and makes a great automatic, IMHO (both great to drive and to own). NG 900s don't have the greatest reputation in the world either, but at the upper end of the budget an early 9-3 (all are turbos) falls into the range, and are a much better car all round. As others have mentioned, plenty of 9000s fall into this range too, and would be my choice - should be able to find plenty of 5spd turbos (either lpt or FPT) in that range - and be fussy, there are PLENTY of them.
