Summary
This first-year 1979 Mazda RX-7 features an optional 5-speed manual transmission and a strong-running 12A rotary engine, remaining stock and unmodified. While it presents as a well-worn driver with fading original paint and some exterior dents, the interior is noted as very nice with a crack-free dash and good upholstery. The odometer shows 23k miles but has rolled over, and the car exhibits a gear whine in all but fourth gear and an occasional rear-end clunk.
