Getting 24 Miles a Gallon: The Acura NSX for 2000

Acura NSX

The NSX T is equipped with a Honda 3.0 liter six-cylinder engine that utilizes 24 valves. The VTEC engine is mated to a Honda 6-speed Transaxle. This configuration has proven to be a successful design for Acura.

The NSX uses power-assisted brakes, with 4-Wheel ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. Steering is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The car uses coil and coil springs front and rear respectively.

NSX T Statistics

The NSX is 174.20 inches long, 71.30 inches wide, and 46.10 inches high. It has a wheelbase of 99.60 inches. It is able to seat 2 comfortably.

There is a 50,000 mile, 48 month warranty with this vehicle, including a powertrain warranty of 50,000/48 miles/months. This is normal for this price range.

The listed retail price in 2000 (MSRP) was $84,000, with an invoice cost of $73,920. This price is above average of the industry average price for a two-door Coupe.

Fuel Efficiency

The fuel system for the 2000 NSX is a traditional PGM-FI, running on gasoline fuel. The fuel is controlled by an electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The capacity of the fuel tank is 18.50 gallons.

The NSX T received a miles-per-gallon rating of seventeen in-city driving and twenty four when it came to long-distance. Being a gas-powered non-green car, this was subpar.

Conclusion

The 2000 model year was unsuccessful for the Acura NSX. The introduction of several trim levels (along with the T version) meant that buyers had several options to choose from..
