Default 93-98 Supra TT - Why big gap in prices?

I see some are being sold for around 12-15k while others are being sold for 20-40k... I know mileage, transmission and condition all matter but similar conditions with similar mileage are being sold for much less... Why is this?

You pretty much answered your own question in your first post. It's about condition, mileage, turbo vs non turbo, auto vs 6 speed. There's not really anything secretive about it. There's no "Type R" model or anything like that. Most of the high dollar Supras you're probably seeing are the 97-98's which are the last years made here in the US.

A mint condition, turbo, low mileage 98 will fetch WAY more than a built 93-94 just about any day.

I was thinking it was because of the JDM engines VS Original engines...
