:grin:Hi all, My name is Chris and I've been lurkin' in and around here for the last week or two. What a great site with nice folks and a wealth of info. Invaluable IMHO. I just picked up my (KM) E this past Monday. I gotta tell you I'm really lovin this new toy of mine. It does make me smile when I'm in it or looking at it. My wife is also impressed with it and says she could see herself driving it (ahem) although she would want the (Tangerine Met).
This is my first Honda and my dealer is great so far. I am very impressed with the frog so far, (yes I get called all those name too...lol):) I just love it when you show one of your friends or family members the E and they are like...don't know what it is... or maybe afraid to hurt your feelings or something because of the color or boxy shape. Anyways I always quote my wife as saying "life is too short not to own a Kiwi Green car" when someone has that perplexed look on their face:twisted: ...it's another part of the fun factor of ownership:grin: :grin: :grin:
Now onto the Mods...:cool:
Happy E'ing
Chris

That color is definitely growing on me. I was just getting used to the GGM, which is darker IRL than in many of the photos I've seen of it. Of course, I'd still like the black panels, but to each his/her own!

Mr. Breeze, welcome to the EOC.

I like your car. Of all the new colors, I now like the Kiwi the best. Initially I liked it the least, but once I saw it in person, everything changed. I also thought an orange Element was ugly at one point in my life, and look at me now!

My name is Gregg and I'm moderator of the Mobile Electronics forum and as of late, crack-pot windshields, or is that cracked windshields? I went to over 100 Grateful Dead concerts in my day, plus 57 Phish shows, and I get confused easily.

Wow, man, Kiwi...it glows! :shock:

Hey Mr. Breeze! Nice seeing you, your KM and the EOC decal on Rt. 9 last night. First time for all three. Watch out for those Marist students!

Hi again ricnard,
That was very surprising for me to see another fellow E owner on the road especially with the EOC decal on the rear window. I have only been an E owner for just over a month. I did kind of chase you up 9 though. I was coming home from work and was behind you at the light before the bridge exit. I live up in Hyde Park.
I always go slow past Marist. I wish they would make an overpass there for the students to cross, it's very dangerous for them.
Well it was nice to meet you and maybe see ya on the road sometime.

Happy E'ing and Thanks to everyone for all the warm welcomes
