Default Element

Thinking about getting a new Element as a daily driver. I like the design, the interior, functionality, price, etc. I need something with cargo room as I will be moving to Orlando soon.

Opinions on driveability, functionality, reliability? Don't give me bullsh!t about it's looks and whatnot, that's personal preference.

Trading the STi in. She just isn't practical right now.

I haven't driven an Element yet, but sat it on for a while. Back seat has loads of room, front is comfortable, easy to get in/out of, very versatile.

the element is quite nice actually, its like a big fish bowl but square lol, i call them the lego car haha, you can see pretty much see in 360, practically no blind spots. its got a nice ride, the back seats fold up quite nicely against the back windows, and have a lot of space and a nice little sound system, little supwoofer and all...2wd and a 4wd..if you want a comfertable ride, thats if you plan on getting one, get one with an arm rest!..trust me i drove one for about 45 minutes from st pete to palm harbor, ARM REST!!

Sure, I'll sell you the STi, $25k....

Interested in a 2005 EX 2WD Auto, in orange (cause we all know orange is teh f4st4r!!!!!)...All 05 EX's have arm rests, thank god!

Element is our main focus right now. Gotta get my STi back to stock and into the body shop for light repairs (got backed into) then we'll pursue!
