1) Buy a New 2005 2.5S Altima.
2) Buy a New 2004 2.5S Altima.
3) Buy an old 2003 2.5S Altima around 10,000 Mlg.
3) Buy an old 2002 2.5S Altima around 20,000 Mlg.
What is the average price and quality? I only know the current APR is 2%.
Appreciate it!

I HIGHLY suggest NOT buying an 02 Altima. Since it was the first model year for this body style, there were several problems and recalls with the 02's.
Based on the cost of new cars these days vs. used, I'd suggest getting into an 04 if you can find one. If not, or if it is too pricey for you, i would say to try and find an 03 that is being sold by a private party, not from a dealer. This will save you a lot of money.
Do your homework on
