After waiting nearly the whole summer...I finally got my E today (replaced my 1990 Nissan 240SX)! I've been trying to decide between the Element and the Civic since June but the E won me over. I'm now the proud new owner of a Shoreline Mist Metallic EX 2WD. It was a late high school graduation present but I'm glad it came now. I couldn't be happier with this car...it's the perfect car to take to college. BTW, the stereo in this car is AMAZING...I'm thumpin' all the way down the street!
Well, I am a 45 year old and recently bought 2 of them. (One for me and one for my wife.) The stereo is one of the really nice features of the car. I would simply suggest that you go to Radio Shack and buy a cord to connect an MP3 player to the auxilary jack next to the power jack above the glove box. MP3's really rock on the Element's stereo.
I will further predict that virtually all car stereos will have a similar jack by the 2005 model year. There is simply no reason to have a tape player, cd player, etc as an expensive option in cars given the quality of hand held units today.
Well the call I've been waiting for the last 6 weeks finally came today. Our EBP 2WD EX came in this morning, and the best part is we can pick it up tonight and don't have to wait til tomorrow. To say I'm pumped would be an understatement. We have 2 kids and have been driving a '91 Accord Coupe for the last 8 years, 4 with the kids, and I can't wait to have all that room. Well I let you know how the first drive goes later. Now I know how all the rest of you felt when you first got yours. What a feeling . later

Congrats on the new E! I've got the same exact color and model as you. Got almost 4k miles on mine. Taking it to the beach this weekend. You'll love your E the longer you have it. It drives sooooo well. Have fun!
