Hello everyone. Here is my situation.... I have a Cabrio that I just bought this past August. Two weeks after I drove it off the lot, the thing started having problems. It has not stopped since. So finally it looks like VW is going to buy the thing back from me and I am on the market again with no clue now what to buy. I was on Hondas site and there was the Element. I went through everything: accessories, building and pricing, etc. But as I learned the best knowledge comes from those who have driven the vehicle.

I admit that because it is a new vehicle I am hesitant because of the problems Ive had with this one because I really dont have any more spare time to sit at the dealership waiting on my vehicle to be fixed over and over and over and over.... you get what Im saying Im sure. So tell me about it.... the good.... the bad... Please dont hesitate!!! I am going to go test drive one in the next day or so, any help you can give would be great!! Email me if you wish and tell me your stories.... [email protected].

Its currently between the Element, CRV (although they are nearly impossible to get here apparently), RAV4, and Escape/Explorer. Please help!! Thanks a lot!

Well I went down this afternoon as I said I would and I drove the E for the first time! I was impressed! I thought it was comfortable and I thought it handled very well. I took it out on the interstate and as far as the loud wind factor that I've read ppl complaining about..... I did not really think it was that bad... then again I have a convertible right so hey no difference there.

It is very unique and I love the way it looks! Unfortunately they did not have any of the EX's in so the one I drove did not have a stereo or anything in it. I told the guy to call me when they get the EX in so I could see some of the accessories in action. There was not much to this one so I didnt have a lot of gadgets to mess with and stuff, but I do like it so far!
