The Yamaha is good advice, as is buying it secondhand. But if it's a present and you feel it has to be new, the Epiphone DR-100 is pretty good, and it comes in black, tobacco burst or blonde:

I also play guitar and there's no comparing a $100 guitar with a $150 bike. You can get an OK guitar from a brand like Epiphone for about that which I'd say that was more equivalent to a bike about $500 - it does the job OK and just isn't quite as nice to own or play as more expensive guitars.
A $150 bike is way more equivalent to a $29.99 kids toy guitar, but maybe even worse. It would have to be impossible to tune properly so it always sounded pretty unpleasant and you couldn't jam with other people with proper instruments, and it would have to be guaranteed for the neck to warp or something else to happen that makes it worthless if you played it more than a few times.
Think how many moving parts there are in a bicycle and how complicated a machine it is, it's really not surprising a basic bicycle worth buying costs more than a guitar with almost no moving parts.
