Decent car for around 12k?

Looking for some opinions on some decent cars for around 12k or less? It's for my gf and she currently drives a 94 integra ls, so just about anything will be an upgrade from that in her opinion. She wants a 4-door and automatic kuz she's tired of driving manual and a newer type car so 94+?

I suggested is300 and wrx. But is300's are still a bit pricey and she just doesnt like wrxs.

Thanks
