Nice decals, incorrect title. The Element was a rare L for Honda. Many electronic gremlins, my workmate had one of the problem children and it was a nightmare for him.
It’s like you got one from column A or one from column B. And if you had column B you were not having a good time.
oh, I see. I mean, it was a vehicle among vehicles. Some went 250k miles with just normal maintenance, some drove their owners absolutely nuts with gremlins.
Mine made it I think to the 230s, the only thing that killed it was rust in the frame. And, I had multiple moves where the entire back section was packed up with 100% of the move in one trip. It was a good vehicle.
I got one from column A and I thought it was the best. It survived for roughly 20 years with sometimes some very poor maintenance and generally did a wonderful job with anything I asked it to do.
It’s a popular car even now, you can find ones for sale for $10k+ even though it was discontinued well over a decade ago. People like 'em. I get it if someone who got a broken one would not feel that way though.

Silverados are the same way. You gotta get one that was assembled on a Wednesday. Preferably in the Canada plant.
That’s weird. There’s a pretty big community around the Element that swears they’re amazing, long living vehicles.
Yeah, lots of vehicles have pattern failures in a certain subset. Column A works fine
They’re also not terribly comfortable and have a weird upright seating position.
Speaking of awkward seating positions, ever drive a Genesis Coupe? It’s the exact opposite; feels like you’re laying down when you’re driving.
No but my ex brother in law had a catfish Camaro and it felt the same way.
And they’re stupid looking.
There was an Element fan in the comments hence the edited title. Maybe a mistake

Honda Element was notable for not having a B-Column.
what if the electronic gremlins are mostly nice and you just met some mean ones?
Well, they sure got it all worked out, because The Fifth Element was excellent!
