hello all, i find myself in a dilemma:


my brother owns a 96 maxima gxe with 110k miles on it. i know hes done regular maintenance on it, cause he has made me do it a couple of times, and he has never had any mechanical/electrical/etc. trouble with the car, only a ding or a dent here and there. It is, in Edmund terms, in 'Good' shape.


now, i just graduated from college, started a new job last week...its time to get a car. my brother is willing to part with his car. i wouldn't mind driving it at all, but part of me wants to just go out and get my own car for about $20-25k. I'm looking at either a new car, or a pre-owned car, open to any import makes, with preferably less than 20k miles on it.


any advice on what to do? take the maxima now, trade it in 2-3 years for a new car, or just go out and get a new/pre-owned car now? any opinions and/or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. thanks
