Everything you need to know about the Honda Element

[SkillsWithPhil]

I've never had a person get in my Element and not say something along the lines of "wow, this is a lot bigger inside than it looks". There's no vehicle that even comes close to its versatility.

Got my Element in 2008 new and still have it! 165k miles and runs like new. I get people asking me all the time if I would sell

I bought a 2003 ex fixer upper for $1300 with 260k miles. put a few hundred dollars in parts and she is still going strong at 300k miles. Body is great and I LOVE it. Does NOT burn any oil and transmission is still smooth. When the engine and transmission does give out im swapping out for a jdm engine. Im never giving it up.

I just recently bought a Honda Element and it’s my third Element!

The company I work for has a fleet of them. Many with over 300, 000 miles on them. Great car!

Honda really needs to bring the element back. This day and age it'll sell.

45 years old and bought a 2006 EX-P (Kiwi Green) last year. Favorite vehicle I've ever owned!

I love my 2005 Element with 5 speed and real time all wheel drive. Hands down the best car I've owned. 210k miles, still going strong. I plan to keep it for a long time.

I bought a used Element from my sister-in-law. At first I didn't want to buy it, since it is so boxy, but I started running a small lawn business, and it is great for that. I took out the back seats entirely, just a few latches had to be released, and it has plenty of room in the back for my mower and other tools. The original sound system has given out, after 15 years, so I am working on replacing it, but other than that, the car is still in great shape at about 150K miles. Going to hold on to it for as long as I can.

Thanks for the well made documentary of Honda Element. I own a 2004 Element EX AWD which has 260k KM on it. The body still has its original paint with no rust. I love its interior space and vinyl floor. The 2 things I consider imperfections are its fuel economy and its choppy ride -> hence ride noise. The struts of the car have been replaced already, I will start to do same to suspension bushings.

They marketed it to young people and never tried going after the people that really could use it. The Element is with out a doubt one of the best cars I've owned, 2007 EX. Also, I have NEVER talked to a owner that didn't love theirs.

Some years ago I came across the Honda Element, I was so impressed by the construction of the vehicle and the durability I went and bought one. Since then I have bought my wife one, both used. we use for business and pleasure. These vehicles are almost indestructible with some what regular maintenance. I've been in the automotive business for over 30 years oh, so I do have a pretty good idea what I'm talking about. Oh and by the way, in the Pacific Northwest good luck finding one for a reasonable price.

I've had my '03 EX AWD for three and a half years. After owning it for a few months, I had already told myself that when this one dies, I'm going to find the newest, lowest mileage example I can as a replacement. Now we are at over 205K miles. Doesn't leak. doesn't burn a drop of oil. gets over 20mpg... Carries my bikes, camping gear, and does awesome in the snow... This little box is an awesome vehicle!!!

Did great with your facts on this. You did a lot of research! Bought my 2003 new and she has never been boring. Drove it up to Chicago Midway when it was young and I think it caused a three-car accident as people were always looking. She still looks like new. What a great decision.

Bought my 2007 Element EX in August 2018. I absolutely love it. What a keeper!!

[chasingwaves]

This is an awesome little car !! I’m buying one soon getting rid of my V8 Dodge Dakota and buying this my Friend Owns one and its the best Surfing vehicle since the Vw bus came out !! This vehicle was definitely made for the outdoors people thank you Honda !!

[clusterguard]

what a mistake to have discontinued such a fantastic model!!

When I bought my element a over decade ago, I had no idea that I was their target audience to a tee. The only problem is that we were broke and bought them used. The longer I have the thing, the more I like it. I have an 03, but would love to get an 2011 so I can drive it for years to come.

[grahampye]

My favourite car I ever owned. I loved everything from the looks, the awd, the incredible reliability, the utility. With #vanlife and other factors in play now... maybe the Element was just 15 years too early.
