The Precious-2006 Honda Element EX-P with Custom Webasto Sunroof

                                      Chozn4service's 2006 Honda Element

The Precious as it is so affectionately called, got its name by a woman who was once in my life and basically said I pamper and go beyond what the average person would do or should do for what she termed as "Its just a car".

Anyway, this is my second Honda Element having had a 2003 Shoreline Mist Metallic. Chozn4service's 2006 Honda ElementChozn4service's 2006 Honda Element

I wasn't an Element fan initially but the '03 got handed down to me as my primary transportation and I became very comfortable with it to the point, I couldn't see myself in anything else.  I slowly got bit by the "Mod Bug" as we term it on the EOC boards (http://www.elementownersclub.com) and the rest is history.

I did a few things to my first Element in adding keyless entry, side steps, rear spoiler, front & rear bumper trims, CyberWhite fogs, window tint but basically, it was still a Honda Element with window dressing. Now, The Precious is more along the lines of Street Tuner Style!

Thanks Chief! As I've always said, there are people who inspire others and you have been one of those people for me. The Precious has come a long way since Jan. 2006 when I pulled her off of Penske's lot. Now, with 7200 miles on it, I'm at a point where I want to drive it more but also at a crossroads to let her go. If I had a son or daughter worthy I would hand her down. Again, I'm in a holding pattern and now that an alarm, remote start and the Push Button starter has been put on, the cash flow has to stop until I know for certain what garage Precious will be parked in. I know I've had fleeting thoughts of this once before and it past just as quickly as it came but this time, circumstances are different and the time frame of this action has lingered for more than just a few months now. We'll see what happens but again, thanks for the accolades. Precious will never be a Darth Raider but definitely she could be a kissin' cousin. ;-) I also have to give some love to JSM00th, Angelique,Burn, Hatch and Wasted on their insightful mods and input. Like I've said, the Element is always a work in progress being the canvas for the artist, that being us. Peace!
