@chevyblows2001 i have the sc model and it picks up just as fast as my manual scion tc. I compare both cars to my is250 and they're just about the same time frame from 0-60.

[gorobotboygo]

i guess not choosing the scion tc was a great idea after all....life over vegetable any day.

[Uazdan5]

@TheElementlover 2006 was actually the year they introduced the EX-P trim model, "P" meaning paint. This trim has the Element as all one color. The regular 2006 LX and EX still had the different colored plastic sides. I have the 2006 EX-P model.

Why did it rebound violently upon impact?

[TheLordperth]

@firedemon101 he's wrong. the panels are still plastic, but now they're painted.
