I had a new one in 2005 and I LOVED that thing. I sold it and bought a hybrid Camry in 2009 because of gas prices and while the Camry has been great I miss the Element all the time. It was such a practical vehicle, and it had actual personality. It was so easy to clean, the soft plastic panels on the edges meant parking dents were really rare, it was surprisingly small and easy to park (especially parallel park, it was short and narrow), being able to easily take the seats out meant you had a huge amount of room in the back, no center console cluttering up the space between the driver and passenger, just super nice all around.
