We recently spent $6K on a higher-mileage 2006 Accord EX-L "6-6" (V6, 6-MT). Great car to drive, although the 3rd gear synchro is a bit of a known issue (to owners, not to Honda) on these. If your friend doesn't want the manual trans or V6 any of these 7th-gen Accords will be less. We always gravitate to Hondas because of how nice they drive for not a lot of money.
