A lot has been said about the Acura NSX for 1995. As Acura's entry in the coupe market the NSX (and in this case specically the Base version) has maintained a solid reputation. The 2-door NSX is especially appealing to wide market segment, making it a perfect car to help Acura as a brand in general.

Engine Performance

The NSX Base is equipped with a Honda 3.0 liter six-cylinder engine that utilizes 24 valves. The VTEC engine is mated to a Honda 5-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 Base Statistics

The dimensions of the NSX Base are 71.30 inches wide by 174.20 inches long. It sits a comfortable 46.10 inches off the ground. It seats a standard two passengers, with 2 doors. The wheelbase of 99.60 allows for limited leg room for the backseat passengers.

The listed retail price in 1995 (MSRP) was $81,000, with an invoice cost of an industry-high price. This price is slightly higher than the industry average price for a two-door Coupe.

Fuel Efficiency

The fuel system for the 1995 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 Base received a miles-per-gallon rating of eighteen in-city driving and 23 - 24 when it came to long-distance. Being a gas-powered non-green car, this was subpar.

In Summary

There are several reasons why the Acura NSX Base sold well in 1995. Mainly the increase in availability and a marked improvement in quality meant the buying public was more apt to choose a Acura, specifically a NSX.
