I don't even know why I want an Element so much, but I do. There's so many quirky things about it.
Are the rear (plastic) quarter panels bolt on or are they glued or something? Might be a nice way to get a durable lifted van that will last a long time without succumbing to Honda tinworm as easily.
they come off. no glue.
Bought one new and put over 100,000 miles on it with zero failures. Sold it and got a Fit Sport for my wife's shuttle car. The Fit gets almost twice the gas mileage but sure won't haul as much.
I know the high roof and clam-shell doors look a little strange. But they more than pay their way when loading or unloading! And the very short turning radius was hugely handy as well. If I was still working and needed to transport other things than groceries, I'd have kept the Element as a work truck.
