Is there some kind of 'super' element we could get, or are they really all the same?
From my limited research, get a bbq that has quality burner elements combined with a good design that doesnt allow drippings to hit the elements. They call these flavorizer bars in the Weber world, but they are really just designed to stop splatter from hitting the burners and causing rusting to occur, etc. Essentially a series of high angle tent shaped covers arranged in a grid pattern on the Weber.
