According to the Honda website, the s2k gas tank has a 13.2 gallon capacity. So, using Honda's figures of 20 city/ 26 highway mpg's, it should get 264 city miles and 343 highway miles.

That's driving like a grandma at posted speed limits.

It's too late, and I'm too tired, to do anything more than basic math off a website.

But you are right, if you enjoy driving, you will get nowhere near the CAFE averages.

I find that if im going above 80 mph, even crusing in 6th, the gas drops quicker then panties on prom night. Its like theres a hole that opens under the tank when i hit 80, but usually at like 65 i can pull 325 mile tanks without too much vtec action

I got 28 mpg average on two different fillups. Just over 300 miles on a 10.5 gallon fill. I guess I can thank my wife's drive to college station and back while on probation

I'm still not used to the digital gas gauge. With just one-two bars left I start sketching so I go fill up and it barely puts in 10.5 gallons. Shouldnt that leave me with like 3 more gallons?? I guess its just a psycholgical thing when you only have 1-2 bars left but I feel like I need to fill up asap. The light also turns on a bit early. Maybe its just my car.

I've noticed gas mileage fluxuates whether you drive with the top up or down. With the top down, I have noticed mileage anywhere from 20 to 25MPG, with the top up anywhere from 25 to 30 MPG.... and if you do the speed limit or just a little over it, gas mileage will be better of course...but who does?

since we are on the subject (kinda), how many miles and/or gallons do you have left in the s2k when the fuel light comes on? Thanks.

Honda standard is roughly 2 gallons. (Yes, that includes the S2000)

I think it's 3 gallons... I can usually make it another 75-80 miles when my light comes on...

And if he fills up whent he light comes on and puts in 10.5 gallons in a 13.2 tank, that's 2.7 gallons.

Just my input.
