for reals i was thinking about getting a element instead of the ep...makin it a full audio/chillaxin' car with monitors and some dubs...and make it like the Studio E concept element...that would of been expensive but tite:)
good choice with the booty-mobile;)haha
I like the Element because it has this 60's Retro surfer ride with the paneling on the side. Obviously much cooler looking than those old Chryslers or whatever the hell they were. Nothing wrong with the Element.

Congrats on the Element Eric!
Just like the EP, when it first came out I was kinda sceptical, but now they have grown on me and I love'em!
Give us some details! Is it the AWD auto model or the FWD 5-speed?
When are you gonna supercharge/turbocharge it?;)

He did mention that it was AWD 5 spd manual. I have been waiting to test drive one too. Still torn between the Orange or Black.
Check out Orange with painted plastic

My wife got this vehicle 2 weeks ago and absolutely loves it. Perhaps the styling and shape isn't exactly as attractive to the eyes as other vehicles, but it makes up for that in many other ways. It's practical, easy to keep interior clean, and it doesn't look like anything else on the road. Loots of room to be used for a multitude of activities with the fully reclining seats and plenty of load space... I could go on and on...
Congratulations on your new purchase.

What I do not like about the element is that molding to me the thing just does not look finished to the outside. I would like to see what the painted outside looks like. It might give it that look that I would want.
hey cool, my dad gots one of those in the same color, cept his is an auto and its fwd. i saw one the other day with 20s i was like :eek:

I am not on the Element bandwagon either. I think they are an ugly box, but that is my opinion. Going from an Si to that would be an impossible task for me, since small SUV's are more like mini-vans.

Hopefully Honda will still have the Element 4-5 years from now. I'll have the EP paid off and I can sell her to get an Element.
It's so much more easier to f*** in an Element than it is with the EP. (j/k)
I can be like Chris Farley and live in a VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER... if he was still alive and all.

The Element is nice, but I think I would preffer something more or less like the Scion Xb. I would only buy it though if it came with more aggressively bolstered seats. Celica GT-S motor, heck even the base Celica motor would not be bad. But the anemic 105hp mill it's got now, doesn't work for me.

Wagon Racing is huge in Japan...
So I think in a short time youll see actual race parts for these cars.
I cant believe the scion xa comes with rear drum brakes:eek: :mad:
