The Element SC Prototype Debuts at the NY Auto Show

The Element SC Prototype is primed and ready to make its world debut to the general public tomorrow at the New York Auto Show.

It cruises with a stylish sophistication unlike any Honda Element you've ever seen.

This new prototype from Honda turns the street into your playground. And with two-tone metallic 21-inch wheels, new projector headlights, leather and piano-black interior accents and a lowered suspension, the Element SC Prototype looks as good as it drives.

Built for people who live and play on their own terms, the Element SC Prototype is the style-conscious, downtown brother of the outdoorsy original.

From loft party to art gallery, the streets are your playground with custom 21-inch cast aluminum alloy wheels, an aerodynamic body kit and aero-enhanced black grille. The SC prototype rides three inches lower than stock for a ground-hugging presence. A fully-painted exterior and lowered roof profile lends credibility to its city-by-night demeanor. Along with its unique copper-colored instrument panel lighting, the striking piano-black trim and carpeted floor are accents that exude a slick sophistication around town.

The Element SC prototype, with its new personality, will debut at the 2006 New York International Auto Show and be released as a production model this fall.
