2003 Honda Element Ex Awd 4wd Sport Utility 4-door 2.4l on 2040-cars

Year:2003 Mileage:193000
Location:

I am selling my 03 honda element EX all wheel drive because I just got a new car. I am the second owner and the car has a clean title current tags in my name. I have done a ton of recent maintenance including:

New Ft lower ball joints.
New Front inner control arm bushings.
New Front motor mount.
New Transmission side motor mount.
New Tie rod ends.
New OEM NGK iridium spark plugs.
New CD player with hands free bluetooth and AUX in.
New set of struts front and rear, not installed yet. (see pic)
All maintenance done including rear differential fluid.

Car has 193k miles and will easily go another 200k no problem. Everything works, ac is cold no leaks, runs and drives great.  My daily driver.  

Cons:
Hood needs to be repainted. The sheet metal is all original honda with original VIN stickers. But the hood and tops of the front fenders need to be painted if you want the car to be perfect. The rest of the paint is fine with the exception of a few dings. Previous owner told me the hood had been repainted.  But it is the original hood so the damage must have been negligible.  

Front seats are cracking as they do in every Element.

Rear tires are new but front tires need to be replaced, they are pretty bald.

Windshield is original and has a crack that does not obstruct view.

Front struts should be replaced as they make a little noise, New front and rear struts are included in auction. 

Or just leave it and drive it as is, The AWD system works flawless and I average about 24 mpg city and 26 mpg Hwy. So not bad for such a large vehicle. Clean title is in hand in my name and registration is current and good for another few months..2 sets of keys with remotes..I am in whittier during the week mon-fri 10-7 and in venice nights and weekends if you want to take a test drive....Getting offers outside of ebay, so auction may end without notice... Thanks  Ryan...email a phone number and Ill call you back.

Watch this to get excited about seeing Honda back in F1

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

Honda engines were the dominant force in Formula One through portions of the '80s and '90s, powering championship-winning teams at Williams and McLaren. It tried to recapture some of that magic in the 2000s but wasn't nearly as successful. For the 2015 F1 season, the Japanese brand is returning to the paddock yet again as a partner with McLaren, and in a new video it's acknowledging all of those past victories while looking forward to the uncertain future.
The video offers yet another chance to hear Honda's mill, and this time it's doing a simulated lap of Suzuka. Unfortunately, it's not entirely a joy to listen to. Like most of the current F1 field, it's a bit droning and just lacks the piercing scream of yesteryear.
With so many years out of the F1 game and completely different engine rules to overcome, the brand is essentially coming back to the sport blind. But any new competitors are a welcome addition to a series that can sometimes get rather staid. Maybe Honda and McLaren can rekindle their old flame to win another championship.

Honda Civic Tourer caught testing ahead of 2014 launch

Mon, 08 Apr 2013

Honda showed off its Civic Tourer concept at the Geneva Motor Show in March, and at that time, we were told that a production version would be coming to market in the very near future. Obviously, the sleek lines of the concept car will be dumbed down slightly for consumers, but that doesn't mean the Civic wagon will be a bland machine. The Euro-spec Civic's angular front end looks like it will blend nicely with the rakish rump that we saw on the concept.
Our sources suggest that not only will the Civic Tourer be a class-leader in terms of cargo capacity, but it will likely be a pretty engaging car from behind the wheel, as well. Honda is hoping that the Tourer will account for roughly 20 percent of all European Civic sales after it goes on sale.
Expect to see the production car debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show this September, with the first customers taking delivery in early 2014. In the meantime, have a look at the camouflaged swoopy wagon from all angles in our gallery above.

Honda could halve its US lineup without crimping its sales much [w/video]

Sat, 18 May 2013

Taking a detailed look at the Honda lineup in the US, it isn't hard to see the strength of some models and the weaknesses of others. A recent report on Autoline Daily points out that its five core models - the Accord, Civic, CR-V, Odyssey and Pilot - make up a full 93 percent of Honda's sales in the US. Through April, Honda has sold 419,798 vehicles, and 389,474 of them were from these core models; not to mention the fact that the Accord was the top-selling car in the US last month.
This means that Honda could technically cut six of its 11 models and only lose about 5,000 sales per month. Of course, this is just some data crunching and there is no reason to believe that Honda is planning to kill off any of its models in the near future. In fact, it seems to be committed to the Ridgeline, while Japanese-made models that may actually lose money for Honda still fill unique voids. Scroll down for the video report - fast-forward to the 1:43 mark for the Honda info.
