I get about 200 - 210 mpg but am running a few mods, you guys are lucky, super over here is about $7-$8 per gallon. The s is an expensive car to fuel but worth every penny/ or cent

I know our car is a natural high rever but why such bad milage out of a 2.0 liter?


I get 26-29 MPG on the highway out of a 240 hp naturally aspirated 2 liter motor. I get 6 MPG on the track. I'd say that's a pretty damn good compromise between mileage and performance.

Find me a 120hp/liter NA ULEV motor of any displacement that gets better mileage

Around town, the last couple of fuel bars go real fast, so I fill up at about 250 miles.
On the drive up to and back from Monterey, this last August, I got 32-34 mpg at freeway speeds. (75-85)

anywhere from 180-350....depending on what kind of driving. (i have never filled up more than 11 gallons)
If you have never put in more than 11 gallons and you have gotten up to 350 miles on a tank full of fuel, you would have gotten 31.8 mpg. According to the Helm Manual, the fuel tank holds 13.2 gallons. If you used say, 12.2-12.7 gallons, your S2000 would take you 387.96-403.86 total miles. You would still have 1/2 to 1 gallon of fuel in the fuel tank.

I myself, have never used more than 11.8 gallons at one time.
