I am about to purchase a 95 altima GXE 5spd, 116,000 miles.  Is there
anything I should be concerened about.  Am I buying a headache or am I ok
with this used car.

I love my 95 gxe! It has 197,000 miles and going strong. I have replaced
little things here and there such as the alternator, starter, fuel pump.
The big stuff have been good. Still have the original clutch, A/C stuff,
and it doesn't burn any oil and no leaks (I have used synthetic oil since
80K).

I give it two thumbs up!

I'd have to agree with deezballas.  I love mine, though I really have no idea
how many miles are really on it.  The odometer stopped for three years, and
since it started again, it has been sporadic. The odo shows 157,000, but it
should read at least 210,000.  Granted, there have been three alternators
(one was defective), one transmission (while under warranty), a distributor,
valve cover gasket, stereo (wouldn't give me my tape back :( ), and the left
headlamp assembly (condensation inside).  Other than that (no more than about
$1,200) over ten years, so I think that for a car that's been paid off for
almost a decade, that's pretty reliable.  I won't count tires and brake
pads/shoes, or bulbs, since all of those wear out eventually.
