I like the pic of the frontier with the dirt bike. The element is also pretty cool but just isn’t my style. Are they fun to drive at all?

Well, Car and Driver called the Element "Surprisingly fun to drive". I'd be inclined to agree with that.

But, to be honest, the appeal of the Element isn't about performance driving. It challenges what you mean by "fun" by being fun in other ways.
It's about filling a niche you didn't realize you needed filled. It's about giving you a lifestyle vehicle.
Something you can take camping. Something you can easily load your snowboards or whatever in...
Hell, you can even fit a damn motorcycle in it.
Look at this damn thing. Plastic lined floor makes it easy to keep cleam.
Perfect for pets. Easy as hell to access EVERYTHING. All seats fold all the way down and the rears fold out of the way or can be pulled completely.
Some Element enthusiasts will quit a job, live out of their shit and travel the world in it... haha
But you don't have to be all extra extra with it. They can be cheap AF.
I got my 5spd for $3500, but it was a little rough. But 4wd is also available.
It works well as a support vehicle or you could just make it look nice and chill.
(But disclaimer though: this one got like 263hp and mods out the ass...)
My favorite Element activities? Taking my family to the Drive-In with the rear clamshell all open. Picnics and camping at festivals. Roadtrips, parking it on the beach, loading the bikes up and hitting the trails, etc...
But if you're still single with no kids... you got plenty of room to roll a chick around in here...lol
