Default Added a new Honda to the stable!

I've been shopping around, eyeballing various hondas.. Looking at the s2000 and the RSX-s..

So we bought an element!

An element EX-P All Wheel Drive with every option an element can have. This isn't it, but its one much like it. Same color. I'll get actual pics up tomorrow or something.


Its so fucking ugly its awesome. My brother (car dealer) hooked us up. Book was $21,000. Sold it to us for $14k. Steal of a deal.

naa, I love the odd-ball color. It doesn't blend in with traffic, nor does the element for that matter. It has character, and I love that in a car. I don't want to drive something that is just ho-hum.

And we've been waiting forever to buy one. I've wanted one since it was a concept car. But everyone wants 20 grand for a half-painted base model with steelies on it. This was just too damn good to pass up.
