I agree, that's why I drove 600 miles RT to get my '07 MT. If she went to the graveyard today, I would be extremely hard pressed to get a new one. It would have to be the sweetest deal ever (and I would STILL have to think it over!)!! :shock: :051: :jump021:

I agree ... If and when I need to replace my 2005 2WD EX MT it won't be with an automatic. Period ....

Bring back the MT, as a choice, not as an option. "Option" implies an additional charge.
I'm shopping for a new vehicle where I can contain my bicycles inside and out of the foul weather, hidden from the theives, and the Element is my first choice, but it ain't likely I'll ever move to a lame and boring automatic. Time to shop elsewhere I guess. It seems like Honda is trying its hardest to catch up to its competition by making boring transportation. Too bad.
