That’s right! Just before noon today I picked up my new wheels: A 2005 Honda Element! I don’t care how ugly you think it is, it’s mine and I love it.

The deets:

• 2005 Honda Element LX
• “Fiji Blue Pearl”
• 160 HP engine
• 5-speed standard transmission
• 16″ Wheels, Goodyear tyres
• Y-Package (Cruise-control, map-lights, big stereo, arm-rests, nice rims, security system, etc…)
• front wheel drive
• fog-lights

I’m actually quite happy I bought the 2005 model; the ’06es have matching plastic panels and not-nice colour choices that loose the character I’ve come to love. Stay tuned for Tangerine and Lime Green in addition to Bone White… apparently.

Now – I need a name for the thing, I’m open to suggestions. So far all I’ve been able think of is “allotrope” (‘allotropy’ defn.) Any suggestions? (Please use the comments section.)

I’ll have more/better photos in the coming days, don’t you worry.
