I love the element, but I am concerned about having to open the front door before you can open the cabk, and the lack of keyless entry? Anyone have small children and drive this car?

I don't have any bambini, but the keyless opener is optional and can get it thru HandA.com. Save the bucks and install it yourself. Will take 10 minutes of your time and is very easy to do.

I have a 9 year-old. He loves to ride in my E, but the suicide doors are a pain when trying to get him out. If I am in a parking lot, it gets quite tight when trying to get out/close both doors when parked next to another car. Other than that, I like the wide opening.
