How long do Acura cars last?
Acura models average about 220,000 miles in Carpool's catalog. The TSX leads at an estimated 245,000 miles, and the NSX is lowest at 150,000.
These are Carpool's editorial estimates of the miles a well-maintained car typically reaches before major repairs make it uneconomical to keep, informed by long-term reliability and high-mileage studies. They aren't measured data or a guarantee, and individual model years can differ. How Carpool uses them.

What the difference is worth
Take two used Acuras, each priced at $8,000 with 100,000 miles on the odometer. By these estimates, the TSX has 145,000 miles left, or $0.055 per mile. The NSX has 50,000 left, or $0.160 per mile. Same price, same mileage, very different value.
See what a car really costs
Divide a car's price by the miles it has left and you get its cost per remaining mile. The free Carpool extension does this on every car you view on Facebook Marketplace, or you can score one by hand with the calculator.
