Replying to: blueiedgod (Mar 02, 2005 7:11 am) ----------------------------------------------- Ugh. Element would offer poorer performance, worse mileage and worse handling than a Civic 5 door. I'd take the 5 door every time. I like to stop, go, and turn too much to spend money on high, tippy vehicles. been there, done that, I'll never do it again. Plus, and this is just my opinion, the Element is the ugliest thing on the road since the Aztek is gone. xB give it a good run for the money in the ugly department. Turboshadow |

| It is not all about size. Just because the element is larger does not mean it is better. In fact it is worse at just about everything, except cargo space. It only seats 4 for goodness sakes. | |

Honda sells 3-5K Elements each month. How many Civic hatches do they sell?

Replying to: varmint (Mar 04, 2005 4:09 pm) If Honda offered a decently priced 5-door Civic, I would be first in line to get one. Right now, Honda offers nothing I'm interested in. I've felt this way (sadly) since 1998, when I traded in my beloved Si. I owned Civics from 86-98, and if they offered something I liked, I'd get it. But they don't. Turboshadow

Okay. How many 89 Sis did they sell? How many Civic Wagons did they sell?

The thing is a civic wagon would offer equel fuel mileage and ride handling etc. to the sedan with almost the space of the element (more passenger less cargo). The element on the other hand uses 50% more fuel, has worse handling ride etc. Is it worth the trade? Just today they were talking about gas near $3.oo per gallon in the not too distant future. |
