Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. Sales are pooled across markets on a relative-price basis, so exchange rates and market levels can't skew the split. Options interact in ways a one-at-a-time split can’t capture — treat each premium as directional rather than gospel.
Marque analyst note
The Toyota MR2 SW20 currently sits at a median of US$18,670 in the US market, based on a thin sample of just six tracked sales over the available period. With only three sales recorded in the past 12 months, transaction volume offers limited price confirmation, though the model holds a stable modern classic classification that suggests resilience rather than momentum.
Mileage on transacted examples averages 123,700 miles, indicating these cars are seeing real-world use rather than preservation as museum pieces. This usage pattern is fairly typical for the generation and reflects owner acceptance of the model as a driver rather than a showpiece.
The SW20 carries a collectibility score of 5 and is classified as collectible, though desirability registers as low within that tier. Production volume data is not available for this analysis, but the combination of thin liquidity and modest demand suggests a niche rather than broad collector following.
Both the three-year and five-year base projections hold the median flat at US$18,670 with no expected appreciation or depreciation. The absence of year-over-year price signals makes directional forecasting difficult, though the stable classification implies the market views these cars as unlikely to swing sharply in either direction over the near term.
The zero active listings at the time of this snapshot underscore the liquidity constraint—buyers and sellers may face extended search windows when transacting. Collectors considering entry should view this market as patient-capital territory where rarity of opportunity matches rarity of price movement.
