Hi, I am new here, but have been lurking around for a long time, trying to do my studying and research. Finally bought my Element today. 2004 EX 4WD with side air and EX Sports Package for $21,700. Got it in the best dealer in Nashville, TN - CREST Honda. I love it. Havent driven it much juts the drive from the dealership to my house and it was awesome! Will test it this weekend on our drive home to Illinois, I have no doubt it will do good. I thank everyone in thsi forum for their helpful insights on the element especially the user witht he Brazil logo
. It helped me a lot in my research and in my getting a good deal from the dealer. I hope I will enjoy this car the same everyone here is!!!!!

I also just bought an E. Honda of Lisle is where I purchased it. Could have gotten $500 below invoice incl destination at Valley Honda in Aurora and Schaumburg Honda in Schaumburg. Neither had a 5 speed EX 4WD E with side air in stock. Lisle gave me the most for my trade.

Can anyone give me some advice for an outside cleaner? Especially on the gray plastic. They will eventually turn into a whitish color if not treated. I would appreciate any suggestions.

#3272 of 4724 Air Conditioning Power?

Is the A/C strong enough to cool the interior quickly in very hot weather?

I would say so. During some of the random hot days a few weeks back in the Boston area, the Element was extrememly HOT inside after baking in the sun for several hours. Within maybe 2 minutes, I was freezing. The fan has something like 12 (literally) speeds, from very low, through very, very high. The MAX A/C Setting automatically selects A/C to the front vents, automatically switches on "recirculate" for maximum cooling power. All you have to do is crank the fan to the 12th position and enjoy a snow cone !!!!
