Default Ditched the Supercharged TC Lemon!

Since my car was a total POS since getting the supercharger and total in shop time was over 3 months I traded up and cut my losses and joined the Honda family again. It's no corner carver but I sure do love it already. It may not haul a$$ but is sure does haul a lot of $hit!!!

An infinitely more practical car for just about anything there. I've never been a huge fan of how the Element looks, but there is no way I could ever knock how amazingly functional it is.

it just needs a couple mods...




they said they could still take about another 150+lbs out of it in weight reduction if they wanted to...

I could have told you TC stands for Toyota crap.

Can't wait to get a ride in the Element. I like the looks of it. Not sure how I'll like the ride though. How powerful is it? Did you have the option of buying one fully painted?

It's a near match to Suzuka Blue. I traded it in at Toyota to get a max value for my trade in and it was one of the only Hondas available . It's a 2007, 2 months old with 5000 highway miles ( I talked to the owner, he left some papers in it with his phone # . It has 166 hp, 160 tq and it feels very peppy for such a large car. 5 speed auto w/ overdrive. My GF Dana just bought a new CR-V this week too. My payments stayed the same and now I'm driving something I trust to be reliable. It's not everybody's cup of tea but I don't need a sports car anymore.

i know for a fact it will hold the entire Veilside Millennium kit in side of it with two front passengers and a very cramped 230 lb man in the nether regions of the cargo area.


props for coming back to the H side.
