well since this is your first post, we should give you a break. You really didn't need to post this b/c the FAQ at the top of the board already had this info since Aug. 17.

But welcome to the site anyway... :thumb:

:welcome: to the forum

:welcome: to the forum...thanks for the info. Don't fret about posting something that's already been done...it happens to the best of us. :thumb:

Sorry about the superfluous posting. Did that in a real rush without looking.

A few of the pictures I took of the HHR SS introduced at the Woodward Dream Cruise are now posted in the Gallery. I like the window controls in the doors, the relocation of the rear spoiler, what looks like a turbo inter-cooler under the radiator and the seat design, front and rear. Hope leather will be offered. The interior looks very need and tidy.

Have a lot more pics, but have probably cluttered the gallery too much already. Not real sure how this forum works yet.

But, I do have pics, inside and out, of the HHR SS I took at the Woodward Dream Cruise. Haven't been able to figure out how to upload them to the forum yet. (And yes, I have shots of parts of the car not posted yet.)

Any advice would be appreciated.
