Or was there a 4 speed FWD manual in the 79- 84 series?

AFAIK the 5 speed only came out in the coupes. I haven't looked at the sedan 2wds but I'd imagine they had a front wheel drive 4 speed...

ah, recall there was a GL5, so that was special too. Hmm waiting for more confirmation 4 speed FWD was the norm in MY sedans

may have been a year thing, as they got younger with no other apparent upgrade, throw in 5th gear

I always thought it depended on the model specification, as the DL sedan had the four speed while the GL used the five speed.
I seem to remember the GL sedan was released after the coupe and was really the equivalent in specification.
Did the DL sedan last until the L Series introduction?
