NM Howdy from NM. A pristine '79, 36k, I'm looking at. Help with valuation?

This newbie is wondering about buying my 2nd 1979 RX7 but I don't know how to price a 1st Gen GS model that's in spectacular shape. Copper/bronze, 5-spd, A-C, with 36k miles and stock except for the wheels/tires. No sunroof & no accidents.

It's been covered and garaged, no rust, runs like new, no exhaust smoke, tracks true, etc. No dents and only one mark on the original, shiny paint. (an egg splat). I know the owner and he's an honest neighbor.

Blue book values really don't help in this instance.

Can I get some assistance from knowledgeable RX7 fans on what the '79 might be worth?

Thanks a ton,

David

No idea with semi-collectable cars of that nature. maybe some other 1st gen guys can comment but you may want to search the 1st gen section in the meantime.

Here's some 1st gens w/ low miles that ended recently- one is a 79. Looks to be about $7000 that it should be worth, in the right environment.
