How much factory warranty is left on your NSX?
Estimate only, assuming the car was first sold early in its model year. Your in-service date is on your registration or available from a dealer.
Acura NSX factory warranty
New Acura vehicles typically come with basic coverage for 4 years or 50,000 miles and powertrain coverage for 6 years or 70,000 miles, whichever comes first. Coverage starts on the date the vehicle was first sold. Terms can differ by model year, so confirm yours in the warranty booklet or with a Acura dealer.
The NSX is no longer sold new in the US, so most examples are close to or beyond the end of factory coverage.
Why body style matters
Sports cars are driven harder and built with tighter tolerances. Clutches, limited-slip differentials and high-output engines cost more to repair, and plans commonly exclude damage from racing or track use.
Hybrid system
A hybrid adds a high-voltage battery, an inverter, one or more motor-generators and an electric air-conditioning compressor. The hybrid battery usually has its own long factory warranty. Many extended plans exclude the battery but cover the inverter and motors, so read that section carefully.
About Acura
Acuras share much of their engineering with Honda, but add turbocharged engines, all-wheel-drive hardware and more electronics, which is where repair bills tend to climb once the factory coverage ends.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Is the Acura NSX eligible for extended coverage?
Eligibility depends on the vehicle's year and mileage, and each provider sets its own limits. Because the NSX is no longer sold new, older examples may qualify only for powertrain-level plans.
Which coverage level fits an Acura NSX?
If the hybrid system and transmission are your main concern, a powertrain plan covers them. If you also want air conditioning, electrical parts and electronics covered, look at a mid-level or comprehensive plan.
How much does a Acura NSX extended warranty cost?
