    We bought our 2011 with 65k miles for 18k. It was quite expensive but I love it! The condition it's in is amazing!!! It's our 2nd one. ❤

    They are getting rare. Glad to see it appreciated. In New Jersey, every element on the road has 250,000 and still going.

    I've been pricing them for that year and that's the going price, which is a good deal! I plan to buy a used 2010-2011 this year too and give my 2007 Honda accord to my son because I like the style and features for the Honda Element. I actually saw a 2011 Honda Element for $20,000 on a Car
    Fax site, way over priced! Thanks so much for sharing!

    I love my 2005 EX. Original owner. 170k mi. Still have the manuals and plastic holder for them that came with mine. Still love it and kept it even though it hasn't been a primary vehicle for 6.5 years, as I anticipated it being difficult with an infant seat since I'd have to fully get in the back to get the little one in. Now that kid can do the carseat buckles themself, I'm highly considering for my Element to be my daily driver again. Kid loves the high (stadium) back seat!

    I have a 2011 Element I bought used , I believe that I am the third owner. The dealership, the previous owner and me. I have just turned over 80,000 miles. Runs great!. I replaced the battery and a sensor went out and caused a few lights to show up on my dash. Honda wants close to $2,000 to replace it but told me it was OK to drive. I am saving to fix it because the lights drive me nuts! It is our back up car. We normally drive our 2020 fully loaded Honda Pilot. We are both retired but plan on keeping the Element forever. It's great for taking the dogs to the vet and running errands, it's the second one we've had.

    We sure love our Honda Element. 😂 I have a 05 LX with 119K, original owner. The LX has the moon roof in the back. It's called the moon roof because when u put the front & back seat down & lay on it I look up at nighttime. 😉 I love mine, the only thing in my Honda I dislike is the seatbelt & Honda cheap out in the suspension. Keep up with ur oil change & it will keep rolling! 😊

      I have an '05 EX. Original owner. Have always found the seatbelt in the front annoying since it is attached to the door.

      @melissaweinger1085 I agree, hv u thought of swapping out the seat for the 08 seat? Not sure when they changed that seatbelt set up? But I'm thinking it's possible?

    I also like the Element. I have two. One is 2007 AWD EX with a five-speed manual with 101,000 miles. The other is a 2008 LX 2WD also with a 5 speed manual, 65,000 miles. These Elements suit my life style perfectly. The spacious interior has plenty of space for sleeping when camping, fishing, or cycling. I love the simplicity. I have had no mechanical failures other than lower ball joint boots cracking. Easy repair.
    I would have paid the price for the 2010 Element. It's the low miles and superb condition that one pays for.

      Couldn’t agree more! I’m jealous of the low miles. I’m at about 210k on my 2008 SC

    I bought a 2008 Honda Element SC after searching around for a couple of years. I don’t like the the 2009-11 because of the non circular wheel wells &the upholstery choices. IMO wheel wells should match the shape of the wheels. Anything other shape is a fail.
    Good looking E except 4those hideous misshapen wheel wells.

      My Element is a 2008 SC as well. It’s my favorite body style by far. I added my SC wheels to this one and I think it looks a bit better, though. Still prefer mine! I just uploaded a short on the channel that shows it here: th-cam.com/users/shorts5L6QOnLr0XU?si=0eXBwndWzzYxK7cU

      2,800 miles?! How do you resist driving it?! Even with the SC! My SC is a 2008 as well. I absolutely love it. Have a garage full of parts to give it a refresh and makeover this year too. Can’t wait!

      When I first bought it I drove it every now and then on weekends. I have other vehicles so I could ride them and keep my element stored wanted to keep miles low and in new condition. Glad I did . I ride the sc around few times out of the week really enjoy it ..I also love them...that is really nice that you have a sc also..I really like the wheels on the sc... I took my 2003 to the dealership for a service and they cannot believe that he just had 2800 miles they said they had 16 customers interested in my vehicle before I left the dealer they loved it.

    Price isn’t bad considering mileage and year and what appears to well taken cared of 2010 Element. Nice color too! IF it was AWD (which i’m assuming it’s not since i didn’t see the badge), that would make it a really good price. Not much more than i had paid for my 2010 EX with 165k miles. Congrats to your brother! Also, none of the facelift Elements (09-11) have the rear sunroof unfortunately, even the EX models don’t have it.

    Sounds expensive. If the suspension was updated, it would be worth it, but this is the highest price I've heard so far. I had sticker shock for sure when i heard the price.
