Depends what her requirments are.

If 9K is her only requirment then I suggest a 5.7 Dodge Ram for 5k and use the rest for running costs:

She could also get herself a nice Chim:

I assume she does have more requirments but you havent given us much to play with.

Indeed, cardinal sin that.

As much as I would love her to have a dodge ram, I suspect that its probably a long shot at best.

Medium sized, manual or automatic, 2L max, economical, safe, good visibility and comfortable seats.
