Contact: Message me for my number to discuss why this is the best Honda Element for sale in the country!
For sale is my meticulously maintained 2007 Honda Element AWD with an automatic transmission, equipped with a 4-pin 2” tow package and a low-mileage JDM engine from JDM Engine Bay in San Leandro, CA. With only 184,000 miles on the odometer and just 20,000–25,000 miles on the freshly installed Japanese engine, this Element is in exceptional condition, ready for daily driving, camping adventures, or off-road exploration. The vehicle shows minor wear and tear on the body, as expected for a nearly 20-year-old SUV, with some dents noted in the pictures. I’ve invested heavily in OEM parts and professional upgrades to make this the ultimate reliable and versatile SUV. It’s 100% rust-free, having spent its entire life in the Bay Area.
• Replaced original engine with a premium, low-mileage JDM engine from JDM Engine Bay who’s known for sourcing the highest-quality Japanese engines with rigorous compression testing.
• Only 20,000–25,000 miles on the new engine, which runs flawlessly with zero oil consumption.
• Compression test performed on 9/29/25, confirming excellent engine health: Cylinder 1: 180 psi, Cylinder 2: 180 psi, Cylinder 3: 190 psi, Cylinder 4: 190 psi.
• The starter, all seals, gaskets, and small sensors replaced with Honda OEM parts during engine swap.
• Transmission and engine mounts replaced with Honda OEM parts for optimal performance and durability.
• Upgraded with a new Denso radiator (OEM supplier for Honda), OEM accessory belt, knock sensor, and VTEC solenoid gaskets.
• Transmission main seals replaced for added reliability.
• All fluids (transmission, rear differential, power steering, etc.) replaced with Honda OEM fluids.
• Includes a ton of spare parts and seals left over from the engine swap, plus a Honda full repair manual and a Honda drip tool for oil filter replacement.
• Fully rebuilt suspension using all OEM parts for factory-like ride quality.
• New lower control arms, KYB strut assemblies (original struts included as spares), OEM tie rod ends, sway bar links and bushings, and new ball joints.
• Upgraded adjustable rear upper control arms for perfect alignment (addresses common Element alignment issues).
• Upgraded front brakes to Acura TSX dual-piston calipers (7,000 miles ago) for superior stopping power.
• New drilled and slotted rotors and brand-new brake pads.
• Brake system bled with all-new brake fluid for optimal performance.
• Original calipers included as spares.
• Catalytic converter replaced 3,000 miles ago with a high-quality MagnaFlow catalytic converter after the original was stolen.
• Installed a cat shield to prevent future theft, ensuring long-term protection.
• Comes with a Honda OEM cargo carrier for extra storage.
• Equipped with a 4-pin 2” tow package for towing versatility.
• Installed AVS bug deflector and rain guards so you can camp in the car with windows cracked and let an extension cable into the car while keeping rain out.
• Minor wear and tear on the body with some dents, as expected for a nearly 20-year-old vehicle and one foggy OEM fog light(see pictures for details).
• Modern Sony head unit with Apple CarPlay and a professionally installed backup camera.
• Includes a dash cam (I’ll assist with setup on your phone).
• Interior shows minor signs of wear, with small tears on the front driver seat, a common issue for Honda Elements of this age.
• Optional camping package (available for an extra fee):
• Custom-built bed platform for car camping.
• Custom window covers for privacy.
• WeatherTech windshield cover.
• Honda Element tent for outdoor adventures.
This Element was meticulously maintained, as I thought it would be my forever car and treated it with the utmost care to ensure long-term reliability. Unfortunately, circumstances have changed, leading to this sale.
• Transparent maintenance history with all work done professionally (by me) using Honda OEM parts.
• Clean title, no accidents.
• 184,000 miles on the body, but the heart of this Element (engine, suspension, brakes) is practically new.
• Ready to drive anywhere—perfect for road trips, camping, or daily commuting. Just drove it to Seattle and back.
