Hi all, i hear the question over and over about the target demographic Honda intended with this vehicle...

Let us see how far off they are, I wanna see an age roll call here, plus guy or gal... (and note which Element you have or intend to get)

I will start it off:

female 33 (34 on April 29)
OWN: Blue Element EX 4WD Automatic. :D

cool another BLUE!

I still miss my old Prelude. We were gonna trade our Integra for the Element, but decided on selling the Tacoma instead.. sooo The Integra stays for a bit longer over 7 years old, still like new!

oh I love HONDAS!

Blue DX Auto.

M (Female) - 36 (37 in February) (Actual owner of the Element!)

T (Male) - 34

First Honda for either of us. M is selling her 1999 VW Beetle and I drive a 2000 VW Passat, which I got after a 1996 VW Jetta. So, we're converts.

Peace out.

M and T (Demo-busters)

We hardly fit the target audience????

I am 56 and my wife is 48. I traded an 02 Chevy Trailblazer (40K miles). My wife has a 2000 Chrysler Sebring Convertible.

We love the "E". This is our first Honda (we are glad they are built in Ohio)! We thought the Sebring was a stretch in 2000 as we had always drove GM.

I'm 42 wife's 39, we're picking up a 4WD EX in the Shoreline Mist on Saturday. We're replacing her car, and were going for the mini van market but we HATED EVERYTHING! We decided to run by and check this out and fell in love.

I am loving the comments & reasons so cool what made everyone choose the Element (as well as the people who have converted from VM, GM or other American Manufacturers).

The big fear, has the whole world converted, will we see only Elements on the road now, smiles.. sounds like a horror movie doesn't it??

Hey rich is your element a DX or EX & 4wd or 2wd?

How do you like the shoreline mist, I had 1/2 was considered it but online sometimes it appeared champagne other times beige? How does it look?

Enjoy!

I'm waiting for an Orange EX 4WD.

I'm a 29yo male living near Detroit, MI.

My wife and I are deciding to give Honda another chance after a terrible experience with her 98 Accord (terrible car, terrible service).

I love the Element and can't wait for it to get here. Had it not come along, I'd still be trying to top 300,000 miles in my 94 Saturn (was at 276,000!).

Is it wrong for me to hope this car fails so I can be the one of the few who owns one? They're so cool I just don't want to share! :D

I think as of now you are our Youngest, congrats, we shall see if that can be beat.

I am so sorry you had a previous bad experience with a honda, I wish you well & happiness with your new arrival to be.

Congrats (& I know what you mean, i don't want to see the roads populated with the same vehicle, neat to be unique! but odds are it is becomeing very popular!).

I'm 53, my wife is 45. We originally ordered a Silver EX but, it was delayed/diverted. We took a look at a DX in Shoreline Mist and loved it's "chameleon like" ability to reflect the color(s) of the setting.

Picked up our ELEMENT EX - 2WD - Shoreline Mist Metallic last Friday. Traded in a 92' Camry with 123,000 miles - great car.

cool so the shoreline mist is kinda chameleon like eh? I was not sure if it was going to be more champagne colored or beige, the online images were kinda non-descript.. i am thrilled for you guys, and sounds awesome!
