I just ordered a Honda Element (4wd, EX, side air bags) and the dealer said
that it should be done on Aug. 8th (this friday!!) but it take some time to
ship it from europe. How long will it take to ship it from europe?

Not sure why they would ship it to europe and back as it is made in East Liberty, Ohio USA! Once again, dealer doesn't know what he's talkin' about or just blowin' smoke.

:lol:

Thats gotta win the award for biggest dealer doofus of the year. When has Honda ever manufactured there cars in Europe? Now if he said Japan, you could take that as passable, but Europe? :roll:

Lol: I guess so. Googling for "honda element ohio East Liberty" seems to
confirm that. Anyone know the ship time to St. Louis? Do they have like
certain ship dates or routes...i doubt anyone knows...but i'm anxious for
this awesome car.

:?:Maybe he was thinking of the CR-V, which is made both in Japan and the UK they are shipped to the West coast and the East coast respectively. :?:

edit: Bush 555 you beat me to it :!: I do not believe the Element is being made in the UK yet.

Maybe the ones with side air bags are built there, since I had to make a
special order for the air bags...
