yeah, makes me wonder just how "blown" it really is... it's a 2.0L. They are pretty much bomb-proof... whereas, the auto tranny is not so much!
Our 2.1L blew a headgasket at around his mileage, but they had a known hg weakness... then we burnt a valve around 100k... bad luck I guess, we're pretty quick on the oil changes etc... that is definitely not the norm, even for a 2.1L... both times, we got it repaired, + it's still running fine now...
imho, unless something truly catastrophic happened, if I was in his shoes, I whould just fix the motor that's in the car... parts are cheap at least...
