Best car for new real estate agent?

[Mindi Rosser]

I'm nearing the end of real estate school and will be taking my state exam in mid-July. 

I've been reading @Scott Trench's book, Set for Life, and I'm bought into the concepts. The problem I'm having is... figuring out which type of car to get when I move into becoming a real estate agent - don't want to go into much debt, but I also want to put my best foot forward as a professional. I am not quite to the 25k savings goal, but I'm getting close.

I have a 10-year-old minivan currently and don't think that vehicle is appropriate for my market. Any tips or advice?

The best car is a paid for car as you will have irregular income starting out and you will appreciate not having a car payment

Additionally, you will find that you will rarely if ever have a client in your car
