Just wanted to say whats up to ya peeps!!!

Alex

Howdy howdy.

-Scojo

Surely there must be more Elements in Arizona than three :-)

Kirsten

Four?

Okay, the four of us, plus I know there is one silver/grey one in my neighborhood plus another orange driving around Tucson which freaks my friends and family out when it turns out not to be mine (I assume these can't be any of you since none of you seem to be in Pima County).

Of course there's plenty more than that...;-)

Just offhand, I've seen four in the U of A neighborhoods: A GGM with Cal. plates that parks in the neighborhood North of the U of A, one with Cal. plates (can't remember the color) that parks South of the U of A (across the street from University House), A SMM with AZ plates that parks next to Mansfeld middle school, and finally a SOP w/AZ plates that I've seen several times in the Mansfeld area driven by a gentleman that looks to be in his 50's.

I've seen several more than that around town, but it does seem that close to half of them do have Cal. plates (lots of U of A students I assume).

And, of course, I'm still waiting for my E to arrive at my dealership (probably about another 1-3 weeks....

I could be the SOP driving around Tucson, though there seem to be four or five of us now. :D

Okay, who was the SOP in the Bentley's parking lot a couple of weeks ago :)

My husband and I were supposed to meet at Bentley's, but he was running late so I ended up leaving before he got there. I called him to let him know I was on my way home, and he asked if I wanted to come back and meet him but I had other things I had to do so I said no. Then he pulled into the parking lot all excited to see an SOP and thought I came back after all but figured out it wasn't mine when he couldn't find my XM antenna.

:) I guess there are least 5 of us driving around Phoenix. I just got mine, a green AWD EX, I love it. Since I got it I've seen two others near work.

Six. Been around since last April.

I'm here too. Lowered 2 inches and sitting on 20's. I'm in Goodyear.

There are two others in my neighborhood by Sabino Canyon, not counting the mountain lions that wander through!

I'm the heavily tinted Green one if you see me around town!

Hey Hey Hey...

I'm here in Phoenix. Mine is an SOP EX AWD. Ever since I bought mine, I see Elements all over the place! Every Element driver I see waves at me or gives me the "thumbs up". It's like being in some kind of exclusive club!

This is the greatest car in the world!!!!!!!!

:)

Hiya, Got one today! :)

Wife and I got ours in May. We began noticing other E drivers waving at one another and thought that it was really cool. I come from rural Iowa and people wave to one another when driving there. It does show a sense of civility rarely seen here in the valley.

Got ours in June and I'm constantly on the lookout for other E owners. I give and receive lots of waves to fellow E owners as I go down the road. Just about every E driver I encountered on a recent trip to San Diego was the same -- E owners are very friendly!

Definitely different from most other Phoenix driving experiences!

I've had my 2WD SOP since last September! Been off these boards for awhile but thought I'd check back in. I'm out in Gilbert. Got lots of 'em out here. Some people wave, some don't. Kinda a bummer when they don't!

I've been using my Element to haul everything including my new minibike hobby. It's great for taking the bike, cooler, toolbox and pitcrew to the races!

Well, nice chatting with you all and hopefully I'll be back more often again. I've missed it!

Pam

I've had mine for a little over a year now! I love love love it and live in the tempe area near campus.

I've been seeing more and more Es around the Phoenix area. Saw a really cool SOP with painted fenders and nice wheels around ASU parked a few spots down from me the other day. With so many AZ Elements, I think it's time for a meet or maybe an light off-road excursion! If anyone else is interested, I'll be happy to get the ball rolling.

Just bought my "E" end of Sept. I see a lot of Galapagos Green Elements aroun the North Valley, but many more on the streets that a year ago. Must be catchin' on!

Hello All -

Of course, all of you in Tucson will know that UG buys ugly houses in his
element!

2004 EX, AT, AC etc etc

My name is Tim. I am an element owner too ~~~ live in Arizona, Scottsdale. :)

You can add me to this list. Im just 3 months new to Arizona by way of Northern California now living in N. Phoenix.

Stack em up! Just got my element in late January! god i love this state and the element is a perfect car for it! Lets try to keep our numbers small though. I see way too many elements driving around already. I say we petition to stop all elements from entering AZ. Oh well, i guess i dont mind seeing them around, i just like to feel a little bit different from everyone else.

hey, where's everyone's favorite place in AZ to take your Element?

Mine is anywhere i can backcountry snowboard (usually around snowbowl), Or out in the middle of the desert in the foothills NE of Phoenix and Cave Creek. I love getting lost in AZ.

Has anybody tried to get a Phoenix meet together? im seeing more and more E's running up and down the 51 and the 10.

Seriously!! There are tons of Elements in the Valley. I parked next to another green one at lunch today. Enough!! I dont mind seeing Elements everywhere but I wanted to be original with a GGM. I think maybe we should have a meet while the weather is still nice. OOH OOH I know!! We should pick a date to all show up at the Pavillions Auto Gathering on 101 on Saturday nights.

Anyone interested??

IM in, it would be cool to line up 10 of us or more :grin:

I'm going to be joining you in Fall, I'm starting as a Freshman at NAU and my sister and Aunt live in Chandler/ Gilbert respectively. I would greatly enjoy an Arizona "E" meet. I've got a EPB ElementClassic '03 and proudly display my Lumberjack pride on the back license plate...

Yo, I'm an NAU alum class of '00. My parents live in Flag and bought an '05 SOM last week. My mom works on campus. She'll keep an eye out for your EBP. I'm currently on my masters at ASU.

By the way, you're not supposed to refer to "Northern Arizona University" as NAU anymore and watch out for your hideously ugly "new" logo and school colors.

Good luck.

CriminLMNT

How about a meet somewhere on the west side of town? The Pavilions has been full of a bunch of *********s lately.

Your right about that. It would be cool to be the sensible crowd in a sea of trunk-lid-mounted-adjustable-wings on 1990 75-hp 4-dr accords with coffee-can exhaust tips, though. :) - 'course, I don't want my doors dinged. If we pick a place and set a date let's try to get an "E"-count of who's interested so it isn't like 2-3 of us. How 'bout Desert Ridge on a Saturday morning? or Cave Creek Coffee Co? We could park across the street.

G

I'm in the East Valley but I don't mind the drive

Let's put something together.

I just bought mine last Tuesday.. my first new car since 1991 (man that makes me sound old!) :shock:

Mine is bone stock for now other than a few Hondaline accessories... and a Scirocco.org sticker on the back hatch.

Hello Phoenix !! :)

I'll be out your way tomorrow and Friday to pick up a new dog from a breeder in Anthem . . . If you see a SOP with Calif plates it’ll probably be me. I’m looking forward to the road trip and seeing E's with those cool AZ plates.

How the wonderful people of Arizona, I'll be a onwer soon, been checking the web site out getting ideas. IF there is a meet, please post it, I would like to attend.

Tony :-D

So have we decided on a place and time to meet? Cave Creek area would be cool (not literally of course). I'm in the East Valley, but where ever would be fine. An Element camping trip up north could be fun too!

Cave Creek on a Sat or Sun morning at Cave Creek Coffee Co would probably be pretty easy to put together.

Camping would be fun (I guess "E" people are stable enough to not worry about a serial killer amongst us when we're away from civilization, gulp! I hope) The only issue I'd see for that is that, well, the non-AWD's will be jealous of our cool rear-moon-roof when we're staring at the stars through 'um.

I've slept in my 'E' on several occasions (once I woke up to find my Element covered in snow). Their comfortable if you for-go the seats and just throw a thermarest on the flat floor.

Cave Creek is for me then. Anyone else in? Any particular Saturday morning work? We can hold on the camping trip and discuss it at the "E-Meet". I know I'll be wanting to E-scape the Phoenix heat soon!

I'm a student at NAU and one of my neighbors has a FBP and there are like four more just here on Campus. Anyone from NAU out there?

P.S. Go JACKS!

Yo, I'm an NAU alum class of '00. My parents live in Flag and bought an '05 SOM last week. My mom works on campus. She'll keep an eye out for your EBP. I'm currently on my masters at ASU.

Yeah, maybe the staff, but we all still affectionately call it NAU, what am I supposed to say, Northern Arizona, the whole name? btw, I like the new logo. go sage!!!

One more new member to the "E" cult here in beautiful Mesa. A quick question, has anybody seen a aftermarket kit that is a taller center console that has storage and an arm rest, I have the factory ar rest but they are a bit weak. Other than that my "E " can been seen in the east valley, plate is "PAR8HED' parrothead for yoyu non Buffet fans..

Hey there PAR8HED,

I've seen you driving out here in the EV :-)

Take a look out on eBay using 'Arm Rest Center Console' as your search or just go to this store: http://stores.ebay.com/Peirs-Auto-Accessories
I do not have this, but have considered getting it!

I have not really come on here too often, but it is nice to see that there are a few AZ people that are into their Elements. I live in downtown PHX and have seen a bunch of Elements running around. It took me a while to do some of the mods to my Element (Waiting for the right companies to produce stuff), but it has been worth it. I have much more I want to do, but all in good time. I have even taken it out to the local autocross at PIR to shimmy around some cones. It was fun. Here is a pic of my Element. Give me a honk and a wave if you see me around. If you can't read the plate, it says
"LE BOX". You kids old enough to remember in the eighties when there was that piece called "Le Car"? Same thing. Hahahaha

Hello everyone!!!
New Element owners here. Just bought it yesterday. We were deciding between an Element or an Xterra, test drove the Element and fell in love with it, we didn't even test drive the Xterra we only looked at it.

Well I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Chris

Rallye Red, huh?
Man! I wish they had that color
for 2003's Elements. Hope you have as much fun
as I am having with mine.

Mark in Tempe here. Just got my new '06 ABM 2WD AT EX-P from Tempe Honda at the Autoplex on Saturday. Pleasant experience & recommended - but only if you are going Fleet.

I simply adore the car and look forward to sharing with you guys; hopefully we can all meet sometime, like maybe at the 5 & Diner at the Mills? Just a suggestion......

Be well.

Mark

Hi Mark,
I am a new member looking for the exact same vehicle. I like Tempe Honda also.. Can you tell me what you paid there. I am going to be making my purchase in about 2 weeks.

Thanks
JP

No prob, man.

Paid $19,100 for the car, with destination, PRE-tax/title/doc/registration etc., and of course before all the added goodies.

You're allowed to go Fleet if you have been referred; I can call my guy for you if'n you want or even have the need. They were able to dealer trade same day. In all, a great experience (outside of the obligatory "You wanna add LoJack and a bunch of other crap to your financing?" dance with the finance schmuck).

They let me take the keys to 2 of 'em back-to-back (an AWD and 2WD), by myself, and put about 30 miles total on the two. It was instrumental in helping me decide on the 2WD (Honda marketing and romantic daydreams aside, my narrow white butt is on pavement 99.94% of the time, and I liked the fuel mileage and responsiveness of the 2WD as opposed to the other). I wouldn't have been able to make the choice I did - and thus be so happy with my car - if they hadn't been so cool.

Let me know, man.

---- Mark

Thanks Mark, I got a price of $19,388 for the EX-P 2WD so it sound like we are prett close. I don't go off road myself much at all so I can't see spending the extra $ on AWD. I would like to go and drive both though.

Overall I have had the best experience at Tempe, Honda cars of Mesa tried to sell me a Ridgeline for 2 hours and Earnhardts just won't stop with the annoying phone calls! :-x


Thanks again.
JP

Again, no prob, JP.

I know EXACTLY what you mean about Earnhardt's, man. Unbelievable. Get treated poorly, then endless calls - after you have clearly indicated and communicated that they are NOT going to get your business - asking you to come back, on "numbers" that don't make any sense whatsoever, oh and by the way - do you have any friends that want to buy?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Completely insane. I went there hoping to give my business to a local franchisee; I left understanding why franchised car dealerships are going the way of the Dodo while conglomerates like United Auto (Penske), which runs Tempe Honda, are getting it done. Ol' Tex might want to think about packing it in soon - I wouldn't sell those folks my snot, and will spread the word wherever I can.

Whew! Here endeth the rant.

Let us know when you get your car, man. Great good luck to you.

Hey Guys I am going to Bell Honda tomorrow to sigh paper work on a EX AWD AT , I'll let you know if their playing games , got them down to $ 21000 after a week + of insane quotes, course still got to pay the AZ TTL BS ,:x

Kingcrow.. I hope you didn't sign for the vehicle yet.. truly.. you should check out Tempe Honda, I just bought my replacement for "Pumpkin" 2004 AWD EX AT SOP (RIP 12-08-05) - a beautiful 2006 NBP AWD EX AT, with the roof rack, flaps and security system for a little bit less than your base price there... Yes, it was my 3rd Element purchase within 13months, and I didn't go fleet, but if you can, looks like from previously posted, you could probably do better.... Especially year end..



Just to note.... when I was coming home from the dealer, driving down Elliot eastbound, I saw 2 SOP's , we were all in separate lanes, and for a moment, I forgot I was in the new vehicle (regressed to SOP for a few minutes) as the three of us were lined up at an angle.. I thought how cool.. and waved to the other 2 as I went by.. one of the SOP's is probably a fellow board member, when she was able to speed up, she went past me with a great big wave out the window.. anyway.. it was nice to see someone finally wave back out here!

Hope whatever deal you make, you are happy with your 'E', because thats all the counts in the long run...


SopBox

Hey SopBox I wish I had seen your post before going down to the dealer ,anyways I got it to day $21000 which inc. the 550 dest. fee at 4.9%, I am happy with the deal , man I pissed off the F&I guy buy not buying any BS add on like Gap ins, Lojack etc.. Btw my Ins guy got me a type of Gap coverage for $ 10.00 a year. But sounds like you got a great deal cool

Thats awesome, and actually not too far off from my deal and with the 4.9 as well. My finance guy was actually very cool about me not wanting any of the adds (A first!!! ), and actually told me with the down payment I made, it would not be worth it to have gap ins. (settlement from my totalled 2004 SOP, was about 3500 more than what I owed.. hows that for holding value!! )

So if you ever make it over to the east valley and see another little pretty NBP with someone giving you the " E Salute ", its probably me!

Have a Safe and Happy New Year...

SopBox

Sop I will be looking for you on the east side, how many NBP have you seen, have not seen many up here.
King

ok.. losing it.. could have sworn I replied.. so somewhere in this forum is probably a post out of place, lol....

When I had my SOP, I saw a few NPB's, but mostly Silver and Green, one or two Reds ( aside from my hubby's RR 2005 EX 2WD MT) .. and the odd SOP... however since my SOP was totalled (RIP 12-08-05), I have seen nothing but SOP's on the road.. breaking my heart each time I saw one!

There are 3 NPB's on my route to/from work through Tempe, but have not seen them lately, so thinking it might have something to do with ASU Winter break...


/wave E

My SOP has been with me in Gilbert for almost a year now. Just can't keep the thing clean with all the darn construction! I sam an ABm this morning...was that you STEVENPHX91???

I bought my E at Right Honda in Scottsdale and although I got a good deal, they are the worst dealership in terms of service that I have ever come across. Stay away from Right Honda!!! Since we moved to Gilbert I've taken it to Tempe Honda for service, and so far so good. We'll see when trade in time comes!

Hey guys,

I saw an '06 ABM yesterday driving east bound on Pecos at Alma School around 17:30 .... any members here fit that bill? Driver was female, passenger male, child in rear .... guessing 20 something.

Late...R

Nice picture, very pretty Kiwi

Hi all, I'm moving to Tucson in May and can't wait. Good to hear there are so many E owners out there! I cannot wait to exchange these ugly New Jersey plates for beautiful AZ ones.

I will get a photo of my new Kiwi up here this week. I love it I love it I do.

hi fellow zonies!
i'm the proud owner of an 06 tango read pearl as of last week. i'm loving the ride and the fact that i can haul my mtbike inside. i too got it at tempe honda even though i'm actually in mesa. the folk in mesa didn't want to "deal" so i walked. it would be nice to meet somewhere and make people envious! someone suggested meeting at the mills mall? let's do it!! (here's a pic of my E.)

Beautiful pics Reagan - and congrats on the new E. I hope you liked Tempe Honda as much as I did, it is worth the drive for me from East Mesa as well.

When I bought my most recent E, the NBP, there was a Tango in the showroom, but it did not capture the light like your pics do, and I thought it was just another maroon looking vehicle. Your pics bring out the beauty in the color.... if you see my little black NPB zipping along on the 60 - honk!

new to the board...here is my Element...anyone care to guess what the license plate stands for???

University of Texas??

nope, sorry...when I first saw the element, I thought it was the ugliest thing I had ever saw...9 months later, I was in love with it!! I decided that since I was buying something that people would be staring at because it was so ugly...that I would also get an 'ugly' color to non-element lovers. So...UOT...stands for Ugly Orange Thing!

Here is my ugly orange thing with an actual ugly orange thing!!

480 all day people....

if you like hip hop music please check out my website and come see a show sometime....ill be the guy selling CD's out of the back of my Element...

Hello everyone!

I bought my E last year just got around to posting.

Getting ready to buy a 06' Kiwi in Tucson! Using Costco pricing...any hot tips or warnings?

Galapagos Green in Phoenix!!! Moving to Tuscon!!! :twisted:

Moved here a few months ago from CA...(grew up here tho) still donning the CA Plates, soon to change.

*wave*
I look forward to hearing about get togethers....

we got one!
My 2007 Kiwi Metallic is wonderful, I LOVE it!

I wave if I see you in your Element...I parked nose to nose with another Kiwi at Gadabout and next to a Tangerine at Target. This car makes me ridiculously happy.
J

were you at the target on broadway by any chance? and did the tangerine e have unpainted panels? it might have been me, i saw a kiwi e there last time i went. theres also a tangerine ex-p that lives down the street from a friend of mine by the u of a, 4th av and 5th st to be specific

(here's a pic of my E.)
dude your story is identical to mine. tempe honda actually transfered my e from superstition, and i ended up paying about $1600 less then at superstition. i delt with a internet mgr at tempe honda and i couldnt believe when i came to pick it up that it was the exact same e i test drove at superstition. apparantly it was the only 2wd LX manual in the state at the time.

Hey tangerine!
Nope, I'm in the Northwest...I saw the Tang at the Target on Ina/Thornydale. (May have been another CDO mom I know)

Your dealer stories are just ridiculous! How shortsighted of the first dealer...

if anyone in the phx area is looking for a e or any honda for that matter, i strongly reccomend mike stanley. hes a internet manager at tempe honda. i am not affiliated with them in anyway, i just had a very positive buying experiance so i thought id pass it on. they didnt even push too hard for extended warrantys and other junk. they offered it of course, but once i said no they just moved on. i was in and out in under a hr.

Dont mean to revive an old thread but I just had to say hi to all my fellow Arizona 'E' owners.

I just picked up my 2007 Night Hawk Black pearl 2wd EX this saturday.

I just have to say I love it.

I love the site, Let me know if there is still going to be a gathering somewhere in Phoenix, I will so be there.

- Dan

welcome!!!

i have a small listserv going of most of the AZ e's

i'll add you

so far i havent had much success at getting AZ E gatherings to work

Picked up a GG SC on Thursday and took it for it's first outing this weekend-I'm in love.

Add me to the list as well-I would be interested in attending a meet.

sweet!

i will

I saw an ASM SC today in Mesa at Baseline and Mesa Dr.-anyone that posts here? If so say hi!

I'd love to see a group of us get together before it gets TOO hot...

What do you guys say???

A friend of mine just had a GTO meet and they had 22... we can get that many, cant' we???????

Yes it would be nice, I know there is a few from Tucson tho so we might want to look into meeting somewhere that would be equal distance from Phoenix and Tucson.

how about the casa grande ruins? that would be a cool trip

how about the casa grande ruins? that would be a cool trip

Thats not a bad idea, it's about an hour from either Phoenix or Tucson.:)

Tonto National Monument might be a good choice too. I've been looking at doing the hike up to the (non-public) ruins. Also, the elevation there is a little higher than Casa Grande so it should be cooler. Also, the drive won't just be up I-10.....

I could commit to a nice daytrip........

---- Mark

sounds good!

i wont be on any day trips until i get out of school----> MAY 5th YAY

but this weekend i will be at the pavillions and then around tucson most of the rest of the year.

wow this is the best response from AZ people yet!

YAY! :wink:

Call me number five I guess... ;) I am in Mesa. You'll see me tooling around near Falcon Field.

Shane

Lets get this party started.

so who would want to go to pavillions this saturday just to meet and greet?

i will be out there about 5-6 with a friends or two for dinner and to see a few cars!

i may be up for the pavilions, im debating if i want to go to my dads house for easter or just stay in tucson.

email sent...

email me if you are interested in Pavil's

i'll email out who is going and what part of the pavils to meet at.

i think that in the far end of the lot by YC's or the east side by home depot would be good spots

I can head up there but may not get there until 7. Alex, I tried to email you through your profile but I get a message saying I cannot send one to you.

I was there tonight a little after 7-I think I saw your E Alex but the problem is I have no idea what you look like. I also saw another green E parked near yours and a red one at Mickey D's. Mine was the GG SC parked a few spots down from yours just opposite the bikes. Oh well next time we'll have to trade cell #s so we can coordinate a little better.

sweet

the red one is the owner of the McDonalds, apparently he has like 3 Ferrai's and a Viper to

too bad i missed ya

but yeah def next time

Dammit. :mad:

I responded then forgot to check back.

I live in the northern part of Tempe, right next to Rio Salado and the lake; could've done the Pavillions, no sweat.

Let me know about the next one, even if it takes a PM or a call.

---- Mark

I just bought an Element. I live in Mesa. If you all get a meet together, I might come out if you post it here with a few days notice. It would be nice to meet other AZ Element owners!

check out the southwest section when you are on! or post up some plans!

i am always trying to meet up or start something

What about THIS Saturday - day-after-tomorrow, April 14th - over at the Pavillions? Not only would getting together to stare at each other's wheels and shoot the breeze be cool, but you would be giving me a built-in and valid excuse not to have to hang out with my arrogant and banal brother-in-law all day Saturday.......which would, of course, leave me forever in your debt. :D

Let me know.

---- Mark

I have a thing this Saturday, but I could go to the Pavilions the following Saturday the 21st. I had slated that day for accessorizing under the hood, but I could make it a half day project.

i am staying in tucson to go shooting and BBQ with friends

Well if it has to be the 21st, so be it. I'm in. You DO realize, of course, that this means I am going to have to spend this Saturday with my brother-in-law, right? Lawdy. I want someone to bring me a Wild Cherry Pepsi as compensation when we DO meet! :razz:

And Alex, since LL and I are in Tucson a lot now (we are having a house built in Sahuarita; should move in some 3-4 months hence), I could always get with you for lunch or something when I am down there. Just a thought.

I had avoided this area of the boards for months, thinking we were off to Oregon and I didn't want to leave friends behind. Now that we are staying, I'd love the chance to meet the other wackos in this state.

---- Mark

sounds good

as soon as In and Out opens down here we need to have an EOC burger meet

I'm in for the 21st.

no can do on the 21st in scottsdale. if anybody is up for doing something closer to tucson im in.

Tucson is fine, too, since we go down there all the time & will be moving there soon. Just trying to get a consensus. Should we open a poll? Do we need a specific list of possible locales to choose from? I mean, in Tucson, I could go for Old Tucson Studios, The Loft, or any one of a number of places along Speedway.....heck, Sabino Canyon would be pretty. Lotsa choices out this way, too.

Anyone? Anyone. VOODOO economics. Bueller? Bueller?.....thank you, Simone.....

---- Mark

im limited to places that arent 21+, but other then that im open to anything.

I think that'd be fun. I'd be up for something.

Anyone planning on the Pavillions tonight? Looks like it will be clearing up this afternoon.

I'm up for it. What time? I haven't been to the Pavillions in years; is there a good place to park where we'll see each other's Es more easily among the horde of cars?

There wasn't much movement on this, so LL and I have purchased tickets to a "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" sing-a-long at The Loft in Tucson tonight. Sorry! With just a bit more notice I'll be at the next gathering, guys.

---- Mark

I hate to bail but something came up at work and I have to stay late tonight. :mad:

How does May 5th sound for the Pavillions?

May 5th actually works better for me too. Looks like we were the only ones who were going to be there anyway. Maybe we can get more people together by the 5th.

Sounds good.

---- Mark

sorry, i havent checked this thread in a little while...only 3 weeks left then i am FREE!

i think we should plan a big EOC meet at the Pavillions...i tried it before, if one of us calls (i will) we can reserve a spot for us in the show, we just need like 5+ cars i think, or we can meet up before and caravan over and take a spot.

late may, early june would work perfect for me. this is just another feeler for now.

if anyone has some good cameras maybe we could meet up before somewhere cool and take some pictures...or after, night shots!

oh, that whole thing was because i cant make may 5th i dont think...

I would be up for a meet, late May would be good and early June would be good too.

i deffinatly cant make may 5th, dunno about you alex,but i have 2 finals that day and more to study for for the next week.

It would be much easier for my hubby and I to meet up on a Saturday before May 28th or after July 4th.

i deffinatly cant make may 5th, dunno about you alex,but i have 2 finals that day and more to study for for the next week.

may 7th = calc 2 final = ouch

So what's a good Saturday in May for the Tucson crowd?

pretty much anytime after may 9th will work for me

i'll be at the pavils this weekend, but i will most likely be in my Chebby pickup!

i just picked up my 2003 SOP last week. im in mesa. yesterday i was on a trip up to Holbrook and i passed Another SOP going the opposite direction. we waved to eachother. i was going to chase them down but i had 10 miles left worth if gas and 8 miles to the next gas station. the E was full of college girls it looked like. but yeah, let me know if you guys are having a meet this summer. i have friends down in tucson so it would be no hassle to come down.

summer is winding down...any plans for meets?:cool:

Summer's almost over? CRAP . . .

Any other E's in AZ into Kayak'in? Could head up to Watson Lake or Saguaro Lake or ???

Just a thought . . .

CDI'ER out . . .

cliff jumping at reddington anybody?

good luck with that, thats what i said and $1000 later im still not done. wouldnt have spent nearly that much if the stock tires werent such garbage, i had to replace mine at 11k. just rolled over 16k today on my E and still like it just as much as when i drove it off the lot with 12 miles on it.

picking mine up on thursday :D

tho 4 months since the last post, looks like not much action in az crew :|

I wish there was more activity here too...please post photos when you pick up your E.8)

welcome to da cult...:D

I too am an AZ E owner, and have lurked the forums for a good long while. Nice to see that other 'zonans post.

A new 07 SC owner here in Tempe. Show yourself AZ owners!! I see you on the road!

it would be nice if we were more active considering how many E's there are here. i see at least 3 or 4 every day in tucson and more when im visiting my dad in tempe.

Hello All,

I just got my E a couple of months ago and have been lurking on this site since. Just thought I would introduce myself. If you guys get a meet or anything going let me know.

im moving out there in august for school, but unfortunatly i have to leave my E at home :-(...but i still have 3 months to change my parents minds (i think they just want to keep it for themselves) I cant stand the thought of going weeks without driving him :cry:

Where are you going to school?

Hi! New here also. I have a used 05. Love it. No mods yet, but I'm looking for hitch to hook up my mtn bike rack.

On my drive home today I saw a Galaxy Grey SC cruise by me as I got on the freeway. What do I notice in the lower right of the rear window? An EOC sticker. That is now the 2nd GG SC I have passed on my way home.

Hey Folks
just moved to Bullhead City, AZ. (Vegas just wasn't hot enough) Anyone in the Havasu or Kingman Area.

Not many E's around here, 'bout as common as a full set of teeth!

well this thread doesn't move too fast

i see sooooo many elements around town, i always wonder if any of them are in here....

Hey DrTardis!......welcome to Bullhead! We just picked up an Element after trading in our Odyssey.

.....and we've got a full set of teeth:lol::D

how does it feel like owing a new model honda coz very soon I will be having one and hoping to have a very good feel for that keeing fingers crossed!!

I'm in Az visiting family, and so far been in Tucson, Sierra Vista (where I'm staying) and TOmbstone. In Tombstone I saw an Element with a license plate that said "BUNNIES" and one in Sierra Vista that had a bunch of retired army 3 star stickers on it. Anybodys?

I have had my '09 for two weeks now. I live in Chandler AZ.

MiloBramble

Where in Chandler? That's where we are. My wife has had hers for 6 or 8 wks and loves it, as well.

I don't know what your skills are on mods, but I could possibly help with hitch, roof racks, etc.

Good Luck

hey southwest guys, I'm in northern AZ with my "E". :razz:

checking in here. I also drive a 2000 integra typeR

Last week I passed two Galaxy Grey SCs on my way home in the same day. Mine was obviously the most baller. I also saw the one with the EOC sticker again. I think we both had ours at Bell Honda at the same time.

Good to have another AZ member.

I'm a little late joining the game but I wanted to let everyone know that I'm another "E" owner representing Chandler!

Welcome!!.........

welcome, nice taste in trim lines too.

Awesome, I live in Chandler. I drive throughout the valley every day though (work a job in Phx and one in Gilbert).

I try to wave to other Element owners but they usually either 1) Ignore me or 2) Look like they aren't very happy driving their E's, almost as if they're not the owners and are just borrowing them, or 3) Give me a weird look.

Makes me sad. I usually drive my Elements with a smile on my face :D

Hey I live in Gilbert an d work in Chandler. If you wave unless I'm deep in thought I wave back! I drive a dark blue E. This is my second one, first was an SOP. Hope to see yall on the road!

First post as I am new where but being an engineer we read the manuals first and then work on something. I have a 2007 EX and I'm going to do a few upgrades if anyone else is interested.

1. The Single Key Fob
2. Install HID and Fog Lights.
3. Arm Rest
4. Install Atom computer for GPS and other fun.

Oh and if anyone is interested doing these little upgrades with me, I'd be happy to bust out some BBQ and help out with their stuff too.

I'm Jason nice to meet you. I'm a firmware engineer.

My wife and I just bought an 06 blue EX-P AT AWD. I am a honda guy and a mechanic. I also have an S2000 and 3 CRXs. We live in Mesa and were always looking for an event or somthing fun to do.

Live Downtown, I have owned the EL aka U.A.V. for 1.5 years and love it. I see at least 3 every time I drive somewhere.

Hello there just saying hi!!!:razz:

This is one slow forum. Are there aver any meets in the AZ Valley?

Just checking in here... I see all kinds of things in other regions, was wondering about the Las Vegas area.

If nothing else, it'll put a bug in some ears!

Hello? Anyone still here? Or is this forum dead?
