ehh, I've driven a few... not really a fan. I'd say go for an old 240Z/260Z..... much cheaper and actually.... very similar performance.

I don't want to be a ricer, but if I did. I would buy a 240. But I am not sure what to buy at this moment :(

basically, I'll have a giant piece of 1/4" steel plate as a top for the table.... build the entire frame out of 1-1/2" square tubing with a tool chest under the center section. I'll mount my air compressor on the left side over the back axle with a spot to hang all my pneumatic tools from. On the right side, I'll mount my TIG welder under the table with spots just beyond the edge of the table to mount the Argon tank.... and a spot next to the tanks (across the shorter edge of the table) to mount an Acetylene and Oxygen tank for my torch. I'll have room to mount a hook under the bottom of the table to hang my welding helmet from, wire brush and chipping hammer.... might add in a spot to put some gloves too. I'll mount a bench grinder on the right side right above the welder (the drawing isn't exact or to scale). Then on the left side, I'll mount my tubing bender and on the back side, I'm thinking about a drill press and a vice. On the back side of the table.... I'll build one long sheet metal brake running the length of the table which will allow me to bend pretty much 6-7' long sections of sheet metal . Still got a lot more ideas and need to draw up the other side..... but for 45 minutes of thinking and drawing tonight.... I think this is good enough

buy a 240Z (and I mean a Datsun, not the nissan 240SX.... don't get those two mixed up)! A small block/LSX fits perfectly in a Datsun
