hambone 05-23-2003, 11:59 AM i was understanding that it was pittsburg, ohio ? anyone ? supamann 05-23-2003, 12:40 PM Elements are produced in East Liberty, Ohio. Engines are built in the US and the transmissions are still built in Japan. wr70beh 05-24-2003, 12:02 AM From what I understand the only Honda facility in NC is in Burlington and they only make power equipment (lawn mowers, etc.). The only Honda auto facilities in the U.S. are in Ohio (I think). inspiron 05-24-2003, 12:51 AM http://ohio.honda.com/index2.asp Slowhand 05-24-2003, 07:36 AM Anybody willing to organize a tour of the East Liberty Plant? It would be a neat trip. isketerol 05-24-2003, 09:39 AM We also assemble Honda vehicles in Canada. I understand the Odyssey is built in Alliston. Bmoblue 05-25-2003, 07:00 PM funny thing, my friend is waiting for the delivery of is black Element. Dealer told him it was being assemble in England ?!!?!. :?: :!: He will be receiving is E by boat sometime next month... I think the Dealer is pulling a fast one!! anybody else heard this one ? inspiron 05-26-2003, 03:01 AM No, they are only produced in East Liberty, Ohio. They are being exported everywhere else Honda will be selling them, Japan, Etc. ERider 05-27-2003, 11:48 PM England....That's bloody well daft. If thats his story you can be sure he won't be working for Honda much longer... But, on the other hand, the Element would make a great British Cab...

I wonder if this "homeland security" has anything to do with it? CincyElement 05-28-2003, 09:54 AM [quote:a1e9fa6fac="wr70beh"]Hmmm, I wonder why?

A trip to Ohio would be very nice! inspiron 06-09-2003, 11:53 AM I'm finally able to get to the internet again! Now I can share this with all of you. We are in the process of moving from Boston, MA to Tempe, AZ and on out way across the country we stopped in East Liberty, OH. ------ http://www.islandpcs.com/honda1.jpg ------ We just pulled up to the gate and were allowed to proceed to the lobby. We tried to take pictures of the outside but were stopped, this is the best we could do: ------ http://www.islandpcs.com/honda2.jpg ------ We talked to the tour coordinator / public relations person and it turns out the main reason they don't give tours in the summer is because all the new models are being built at the time and they don't want to let the "secrets" out, like new colors, new features, etc. Tours will be resumed in the fall, around August. -Phil | ||
