Thread: I buyed da wrong Hon-duh!

    Default I buyed da wrong Hon-duh!

    Interesting video of the new Element SC (not supercharged, despite the name) on an autox course.



    BTW: I was kidding about buying the wrong Honda. Just for the record. Wouldn't want the VTEC police to confiscate my keys.

    You might recognize this as being the same cone course that appeared in our '07 Civic Si Sedan Test, and it may also be surprising to know how very close the laptimes were for this Element SC (some drivers were actually quicker in the SC than in the Si, heh).
    Are you sure you didn't buy the wrong Honda?

    I'm pretty sure this version has a different suspension and very different rubber than your box. But hey, why not! Love to see ya out there.

    By the lack of roll, it must have some pretty stiff springs or some massive sways. Tires sure are noisy.

    I'm pretty sure the one on the autox course is FWD.
