It used to be some 4 years ago.
I usually keep an EF on hand for daily driving, and now i've got this 1990 Civic Wagovan:
Not Exactly an EF...How About EE Wagovan?
My wife also drives an 05 Element. She used to have a crazy nice 1992 Si HB with B16A2 swap, Neuspeed Bilstein full coil-overs, all a/c, p/s, cruise, moonroof, etc. etc. She wanted an Element since they came out, and at the time I had an EG and an EF so it was nice to have something different than the sporty compact hatches we had.
I find myself driving the wagovan exclusively lately because it's just so comfy, still handles great, and with the B18B swap still runs well.
For as alike as they are they're also pretty different. The wago certainly isn't knocking on 12's, and wouldn't be nearly as capable on an auto-X course as the EG, but they each serve a very specific purpose.
