Question Rebuilt Rx8

Hi i wanted to know i sold my rx8 about a year ago and no im missing it alot and thinking of getting a other one. for roughly 8k and the one i found is 7,5k but its a rebuilt title so im not to sure what to think about that. i was told the car did some barrels and all the airbags poped. then the car was rebuild. i plan on taking the car and putting a bodykit on it with lambo doors and neon lights and if cloth remake the inside into leather. my question is what would be my best choice. need the comments on why you chose that car vs a other ty.
What would you guys advise me to do here are my choices.

Stay away from a rebuilt title, frame damage is not fixable. It may look ok but a bent frame will never ever be the same.

3, it has less chance for salt damage and already has the interior you want. A new engine swap is easier and probably costs about the same as a leather interior swap.

thats if it even needs a new engine.
