Overall a great car.We own an 01 Accord and love it.Our family has owned many models and years with very little negative to say about Honda. The Element continues in this tradition. The combination of economy and utility is a great aspect of this car.The back seats can't be fully reclined to latch up inside unless the head rest is removed.This appears to be an oversight since the owners manual and website make no mention of removing head rest.The moonroof needs improvements- with the glass in- it opens a paltry 3-4 inches. When you remove the glass, the optional screen that I purchased isn't supposed to be used when the car is in motion.A power roof like we have on our accord would be great.

I am 6'6 and with two teens who are going to each be over 6 footers I was looking for a car to meet my "high" expectations - the Element was a godsend. As a fastidious car researcher and owner, I needed high quality (which meant Ford or foreign) respectable gas mileage, with lots of legroom front and rear, and I wanted it to be stylish and fun to drive. I got it all with this car and the price was fabulous (about $3800 off sticker on a 2004). I was so tired of seeing rounded car blobs or cookie cutter SUVs. This car has pizzazz!

It's been a long time since I've felt this good about a car. I know it's a little weird looking but it feels just right!
