Default Element vs. WRX STi

I spent this past weekend camping out at the Falcon Ridge folk festival in Hillsdale, NY. Because I was traveling with several people and lots of equipment, I took the Element instead of the S2K. Parked right in front of my in the camping area was the first WRX STi that I've seen on the road. At least 10 people stopped by to ask about the Element for every 1 who stopped to look at the STi. I'm sure if it had been an S2K instead of the STi, it would have been the same. Granted, sports cars are slightly out of their element, pun intended, at folk festivals, generally frowned upon along with SUV's (and you wouldn't EVEN want to show up in a Hummer). Granted also that there's no point to this message . . .

The Element is different, which is why it garners attention. A Hummer H1 is just an overpriced vehicle that will rarely be used what it was designed for. The H2 is just a GM.

Like a guy that does roofs and drivers a Hummer as a company vehicle? I wouldn't call him to do a roof, that is for sure.
