I bought my used '02 SE Auto with 26K in Ohio for $17,500 in Feb '03.
Options:
Auto, Non-Bose, Cloth interior.
This car turned out to be an Enterprise Rental Car retiree.
The asking price was $19,500, but I used to work at the dealership where I purchased it, so my old boss gave me a pretty good deal I feel.
Plus they knocked off $1K from the extended warranty price.

I'm pretty happy with the deal.

Or you cuold lose $10,000 the first year you own your new one? $17,500 is a bit more than a few grand less than a new one.

2k2 6 speed in March, 2003 for $17.5 22K miles, sunroof, tinted windows, Nissan all weather floor mats. Car was babied and tires showed almost no wear at all. I thought the deal was fair. Sticker was like 27.5 and he paid 24xxx. So I think I did ok. Car has 30K miles on it now and is flawless.

2k2 auto with 11k on it, bought last May for 18.5k.
I also was tired of the big hit from being the first to title a car. No problems.

If I'm spending 20 for a used one, I'll spend 23 for a new one. but If i'm spending 17 for a used one, 23K+ is way out of range !!! I'ld say if you are beyond 3K on New Vs Used, then get Used.

I just bought mine in mid August, 2k2 w/ 25k on it at the time. Its just a base SE with a few options not much though. I went to Manheim Auto Auction here in PA and picked it out of the 70 they had to choose from. I paid $15,800 out the door w/ tax. So far I'm happy...I really only needed the car for a year or so but I like It and will probably end up keeping it longer.

Mine was bargined in because they were not trying to go down on this price and I was going to to to their competitor to buy another Maxima, so they through it in for free. They also have this other fake crap that you apply on every 6 months but that stuuf is crap and it dose not come with a lifetime warantty. You get this from the dealship, well at least that were I go mine. Good luck.

I got my 2k2 SE auto w/25k mi,non Bose and cloth for $16,900 about 6 months ago. I was really pumped considering I almost bought a 49k mi 2k SE auto with one of the worst 1-2 shifts I've ever felt for $14,900. A BIG step from a 94 Acura Integra RS w/140hp non torque making motor and I got HID's

Got my 2K2 stock SE in July '03. 8200 miles, Nissan Certified (extended powertrain warranty) with balance of factory warranty for $18.7K. Found paperwork in glovebox & talked to original owner before purchase, so was pretty comfortable about vehicle condition. If I can track down rattle in driver's side wheel well, I'll be extremely satisfied.
