2011 Honda Element Ex Sport Utility 4-door 2.4l Plus Many Upgrades!! on 2040-cars
Seaside, California, United States
What we have here is my 2011 Honda Element. I have to be honest, I don't want to sell her, but a transfer to Japan is pretty much forcing my hand. A couple dealer installed options I want to point out, are the roof rack and trailer hitch/towing package. I have taken great care of this care it's entire life. She's been dealer maintained and I have all the service receipts to prove it. Also, she's due for service, so before the new owner picks her up, I'm going to get her serviced so you'll be good to go until the next service interval. (Yes, I'll have the dealer receipt to prove it!)
YOU WILL NOT FIND ANOTHER ELEMENT LIKE THIS ONE!!!! The particular Element is sporting 6000K Xenon headlights, both hi and low beam. I upgraded the sound system to ensure I had bluetooth connectivity and hands free calling. Of course, when I upgraded the head unit, I also upgraded everything else...the stock system is a 300 Watt 7 speaker system...pathetic. Now, this particular Element is sporting a 9 speaker 1100 Watt stereo. All the speakers are Alpine except the subwoofer are alpine, the amplifier is an Alpine 5 channel unit, and the subwoofer is made by Polk audio...no expense was spared, and yes, the speaker wires were upgraded as well to handle all the extra juice! I can honestly say I prefer the clarity and depth of sound from this system over the Harmon Kardon system in my wife's Land Rover. (She won't admit it, but she does too!) For those of you worried about huge speaker boxes being everywhere, don't, all speakers are mounted in their stock locations. The subwoofer was upgraded from 6" to 8" within the stock unit's enclosure, and the rear door speakers gained a set of component tweeters installed flush in the door instead of plain speakers. The result is wonderful sound throughout the entire vehicle, bluetooth hands free integration for phone calls, streaming audio, and google maps integration. Also, to ensure I had 100% stock functionality, I added the sirius/xm radio interface to the radio, as well as the steering wheel control interface. So, sit back, leave your hands on the wheel because even though the system is aftermarket, all the stock controls work exactly how their supposed to!! This car is the best all around vehicle you'll ever own, hands down! Not only has it been declared the best pet vehicle ever, but it's heavy duty flooring and seat materials make it easy to clean for those of us with kids! Take it to the beach with the kids and the dogs...it's got the heavy duty rubber floor mats, and the Honda neoprene rear seat covers! It's got the roof rail system as well so you can strap your surfboards...bikes..kayaks, or whatever you want to the roof and hit the road! I've taken it camping more times than I can count, and it's absolutely amazing how much stuff you can fit, and worst case if you get to your site and it's raining, the seats all fold down into one another to form to beds inside the car. So there's no surprises when you come to drive your new car home, the car does have one small blemish on it. Someone kissed the driver's side rear fender when they were pulling into or out of a parking place next to me. I've included a picture of the spot, and I was quoted $250 by a highly reputable shop for a bumper re-spray to get it fixed as it is ONLY paint damage, nothing else...I just haven't had the time to get to it. Like I said at the beginning, this is my car, and I love it to death and wish I didn't have to sell it. I've upgraded it how I've wanted it, and have...or should I say had even bigger plans that what's already on there. I know she'll make anyone a great vehicle, whether you're a large family, or just someone who likes to hit the beach by themselves after work. Don't let this one slip by, 2011 is the last year Honda made these, and given the fact that the Honda dealership calls me at least twice a month asking if they can buy it back from me, these are becoming harder to find every day! Feel free to email, or call (Chris: 757-513-7776) if you have any other specific questions I didn't answer here! Good luck, and don't wait to make this special car yours! |

Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k
Wed, 07 Nov 2012Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.
Refreshed 2014 Honda Civic Coupe to bow at SEMA
Fri, 25 Oct 2013Honda has announced plans to bring a refreshed, 2014 Honda Civic Coupe to the 2013 SEMA Show, set to kick off on November 5. Honda's struggles with the ninth-generation Civic have been widely publicized, and while the 2013 model year sedan has seen a significant overhaul, the two-door is now getting some additional enhancements for 2014.
Honda has released one teaser image of the Civic Si Coupe to go along with the announcement, but we can discern a few things. The Si Coupe now features a larger rear spoiler, along with a restyled, more aggressive rear bumper, complete with a diffuser. The taillights look smoked, and the wheels look larger than the current Si's alloys.
Besides those details, it looks like we'll be waiting until November 5 to see just what Honda has in store for the Civic. Take a look below for the full press release from Honda.
McLaren working on P15 supercar to slot between 650S and P1
Thu, 20 Mar 2014McLaren has been busy these past few years. It launched the MP4-12C in 2011, the 12C Spider in 2012, the P1 in 2013 and (most recently) the 650S in 2014. But it's not about to stop there. It's got an "entry-level" model in the works, set to take on the Porsche 911, and - according to information reported by Car and Driver and confirmed by McLaren in correspondence with Autoblog - a new flagship model, too.
The project is internally codenamed P15, and it calls for a new flagship that will cap the company's lineup once the P1 finishes its limited production run, but carry a price tag in the neighborhood of $500k to slot in between the P1 and the new 650S.
Just how, you wonder, can McLaren possibly develop another supercar each year? Simple: underneath, they're all essentially the same. (Only we're sure it's anything but simple.) That is to say they're all based on the same carbon monocoque structure and powered by the same 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8 mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission driving the rear wheels. What differentiates them is what the engineers in Woking build around that monocoque and how they tune the engine: +/- 600 horsepower in the 12C (depending on the year it was built), 640 hp in the 650S, or 727 hp in the P1 (with another 177 from the electric assist). The 911 fighter would likely develop in the 500hp range, and the P15 will probably land in the upper 600 (or lower 700) range.
