MS3 to Element

I guess you are in your element now, LOL.
I used to own a Ninja Turtle Green Element. Loved the car, could use a hose to clean the interior after mountain biking. Funny thing though, I went the opposite way and traded the Element for the MS3.
 
man you guys think the ms3 is the coolest car in the world or something. honda elements are awesome i would love one. i would trade for one if i could

Common misconception. They aren't designed with water-tight electrical systems. It is NOT designed to be hosed out- regardless of what salesmen at the dealerships say (they told me that about mine when I bought it).

Somehow I fail to believe the authenticity of this post.

The MS3 may not be the apex of awesomeness, but it is one of the world's fastest,best handling FWD hatches in the world. The Honda Element is, well, an almost 'hip', borderline cool, box on wheels. Element,awesome,NOT!(flame2)

This?

I'd rather deal with the issues and have one of the most unique turbo4 cars of our time (I like to consider our MS3 as a Nissan 240 of our time - it's a hidden gem that kids will seek out in the future when they get their driving licenses and want a car that is fun out of the box and easy to mod).

Don't worry. He'll miss it. We'll see him come back and say:[/QUOTE]

the MS3 will never be like the 240sx. the 240sx is so popular because its a lightweight RWD coupe that has an amazing aftermarket. the MS3 isnt RWD and has a tiny aftermarket.

also any engine you want can fit in a 240sx. LS1, RB, 2JZ, 13b you name it.

haha i would get an element for the usefulness of it not for speed and handling. When i bought my speed i thought it was the coolest car too! but it got old and i cant do anything but go fast and look cool and i couldnt care less about looking cool and going fast. The element is a car for going on road trips with friends, camping and putting s*** in it to take with you. thats why i would get an element and why "I" think there awesome... just my opinion haters

Ha! Talk about a picture being worth a 1000 words, uh? (rlaugh)(rlaugh)(rlaugh)

I guess my response is this:


1. Good luck & godpeed w/ the Element. Hondas are damn good cars, at least my CRX Si was.

2. Still & all, in the immortal words of Judas Priest: Better By You, Better Than Me. (headbang)(headbang)(headbang)
 
Personally I am not a fan of the Element, but that is me, size is nice, but don't think it has the off-road capabilities I'd want.

But I do know that if I didn't already have a Nissan Xterra, I would have a hard time buying an MS3, just because I do camp/hunt/fish quite a bit, and I am not hauling two friends and all our gear for a weeklong trip up forest service roads in the rocky mountains with my FWD hatch. If I had to stick with one, the Xterra would be the one. I'd rather give up the xterra, but this is about need, and not want.
 
had a nissan xterra 4X4 that was a mule... man i loved that thing. lotsa my surfing bros have elements, and i like them.... very versatile, and perfect for surfing, biking, that kind of stuff... and in AWD models they do ok on the beach, usually.

for these guys it's all about the mileage combined with utility. you can go a long way, and haul some gear with this thing. just don't ask it to tow anything but the smallest of trailers. and surfboards on the roof will hurt your mileage a bit... :)
