Let me set the stage by saying I'm a silver-haired 53-year-old grandfather. I've gotten lots of "thumbs up" signs and big smiles from various motorists and given several impromptu tours to gawkers in parking lots, at the pool and such. Element fans have ranged from 18 to 68 so far in my experience.
But the other evening I was driving across town and had 3 20ish African-American guys pass me- all hanging out of their car smiling and giving me the "thumbs up" sign. The thought occured to me that in our culture today VERY FEW things could make 3 20-year-old African-American guys grin, wave and give the "thumbs up" sign to a 53-year-old white grandfather!
The Element crosses cultural boundaries in a refreshing way. Thank you Honda.
