78/3 RX7 Found
I found a 78/3 RX7 in a yunk yard it still has everything its a complete car just some rust it is silver with black interior it seems to have wery few miles somebody interested I am sure the dude would agree to sell it for next to nothing.
If I had the money I would get it since it is such an early date car but I am about to buy a house and really need to save up some more money.

There were 3,300 cars exported to North America with the 3/78 build date. While the offical launch date was 24 April, most were presold to eager buyers. Unallocated ones fetched a handsome premium.
Mazda had planned to sell the base model for under $6,000, but at the last moment the US $ fell in comparison with the yen and the starting price increased to $6,395. That is about the same as the asking price for one in good condition over 25 years later!
