View Full Version : Personalized license plates for the HHR SS...
misterjensen 09-03-2007, 12:31 PM Okay; let's keep our minds razor sharp while we are waiting for the HHR SS to hit the dealerships! In my state (Wisconsin), you are able to put personalized license plates on hold for up to two years, so I would like to try and get something on hold while I'm waiting. In Wisconsin's case, you get up to seven characters (letters or numbers ONLY) with no more than two spaces. Let's brainstorm together and see what our best ideas are! (Please don't forget to put an explaination next to your idea incase people can't figure out what it says.)
I'll go first:
SPR SPRT: "Super Sport"
SPR FAST: "Super fast"
BLU FLSH: "Blue Flash"
08 HHR SS: "2008 HHR Super Sport"
courthousedeb 09-03-2007, 12:37 PM If I went with an SS...mine would be
SMOKESS
"SMOKE SS"
but I would never get rid of my beloved HHR. ;)

HHRTRBO (HHR turbo)
HHR TC (HHR turbocharged)
FASTHHR (also sounds like FASTER)
QUIKHHR (also sounds like QUICKER)
HHRY UP (sounds like HURRY UP)
HHRSSTC (HHR SS TurboCharged)
BOOSST
that's all I can think of for now.

misterjensen 09-05-2007, 11:14 PM How about this one:
WAITING: As in "waiting for Chevrolet to get off their asses and get more information about the HHR SS out to the rest of us..."
MOTRV8D 09-06-2007, 12:46 AM oh didn't you hear?
The web site will be updated on Sept. 4 with new pics, info and pricing.
Oh that's right it's Sept. 5th what was I thinking? :sillyme:

misterjensen 09-06-2007, 10:19 PM Okay guys... if I bought a red HHR SS, would this work?
RED SLED
As in, close to "lead sled"... What do you think?
My other idea is:
FASTR N U: "Faster than you"
MOTRV8D 09-07-2007, 12:24 AM Okay guys... if I bought a red HHR SS, would this work?
RED SLED
As in, close to "lead sled"... What do you think?
My other idea is:
FASTR N U: "Faster than you"
well FASTR'n YOU would work great until you line up at a stoplihgt with oh lets say a Z06, or even a car like mine a lightly modified LS1 Z28. Then I would feel a llittle foolish, but that's just me. :D
how about
CRUZ MSL
RD SSLED
NRBGRNG (Nurburgring)
RED SLED is prolly taken by some lowrider...
misterjensen 09-19-2007, 08:51 AM Okay. I sent in my top three choices to my state DMV to hopefully get one of them on hold. My three choices are...
ADIOSS - "Goodbye" in Spanish with an extra S. My wife and I thought this was pretty clever being able to tie together the "SS", the fact that the car is built in Mexico, and "I'm going to pass you and say goodbye"
RED SLED - Red classic / custom looking car, similar to "lead sled"
FASTR N U - Faster than you
solman98 09-19-2007, 09:29 AM I hate the plate they use in SC for the personalized tags. If they offered it with this (standard plate), I would get this. It is non HHR specific. :lol:

MOTRV8D 09-20-2007, 07:34 PM How about
TYR FRYR
cmon you can figure it out!
TRUE STORY: I saw a Viper on the freeway a few months ago on my way to work. I followed it for a while and noticed the license plate read, "FKN FAST." :eek:
Hmmm, I thought... how did this guy get away with that? The Calif. DMV does not allow "FKN" to be on any license plate for obvious reasons. Well lo and behold, the guy not only got off at my same exit, but as I drove to work he actually pulled into my same parking lot. So I pulled up next to the guy and asked him how got a license plate that said that. Turns out it doesn't say "FKN FAST" but "EKN FAST"... he had installed a black license plate frame that had a very thick bottom and it covered up the bottom stroke of the "E," creating the appearance of an "F."
Now if that were me, no way would I have license plate such as his. No. 1, just driving a Viper is going to get the cop's attention anyway, and No. 2, seeing FKN FAST on the license plate is just going to piss him off. Might as well order a license plate that says, "RYT ME UP!" :rof:

1FASVET 09-20-2007, 09:20 PM My 07/Z06 plate is 1FASVET and it is what it says. Looking for a new for the 2008 Panel. Have a week to find one! 1FASVET
misterjensen 09-25-2007, 06:20 PM Just got the approval from the Wisconsin DOT; I have "RED SLED" on hold :)

(Not exactly to scale, but you get the idea...)
hhr/49suburban 09-26-2007, 01:09 PM Illinois rout 66 plates already come with the SS. Put whatever you want in front of it and your all set.
MOTRV8D 09-26-2007, 02:47 PM RED SLED,
I like it. Better than FASTER N U...
:D
misterjensen 09-27-2007, 08:37 AM I can't wait!!! I'm way too excited :thumb:
Be honest; does it work or not?

MOTRV8D 09-27-2007, 10:00 AM One thing's for sure. Younger ppl who never heard of the old custom car term, "Lead Sled" won't get it at all.
But all the old hot rodders that see it sure will. You'll get lots of :thumb: from them...

Crap. You confirmed what I just started wondering about recently. I want a plate that is more universally understood. I can see your point about the younger folks not getting it. Crap. It might be time to go back to the drawing board!
Lee3333 09-27-2007, 10:20 AM I just checked the Chevy HHR site and could only find 2007 info, so obviously no SS. Am I looking in the wrong place, or what?
I am too attached to The Flash to trade him in, but I would love to do some upgrades and find out more about the SS. The quicker steering, for one. And what did they do to the suspension? I would want the rear disk brakes. I would prefer to work on the bigger 2.4 motor-turbo or super- since it is starting with more HP to begin with than the 2.0. With my intake, exhaust, and computer flash, according to my G-Timer, I should have about 213. And the 2.4 has more torque than the 2.0 which is good for city driving.

waloupis 02-23-2008, 12:46 AM Kicking around some ideas; such as WHY-55, CHVY-SS, BAD-SS, SS-KART and for the uninspired; HHR-SS.
chooch 02-23-2008, 12:50 AM how about '' HEY A SS''
MOTRV8D 02-23-2008, 02:08 AM My GF who loves HHRs like me likes to call them bread trucks after the old Suburban Helms Bakery Truck that once had rounds in her childhood neighborhood. So I'm playing with these coupla idea, I dunno.

waloupis 02-23-2008, 09:03 AM In Connecticut we're only allowed a combination of 6 letters/numbers which completely sucks. It seems anything good needs 7 characters minimum!

norcalmike 02-23-2008, 10:58 PM Saw an Audi today with A3BLISS, Maybe SSBLISS ?
I applied for "SS ROJO" in NC. I have a red ss, it sounds like a ship name with the SS first (SS stands for SteamShip) and my nickname for all my latino friends is Rojo (I'm readheaded).

Rolyat1955 03-10-2008, 10:13 AM We got our SS a week ago. In Illinois you can request 3 different plates (in case your first and second choices aren't available) and we don't know yet if we got any of our requests. Should be hearing soon though. Here's what we asked for for our Vicotory Red SS:
1st choice: R HHR SS
2nd choice: RATS SS (hubby's initials are RAT)
3rd choice: R Red SS
As soon as we find out, I'll let ya know!

Question though...if you have a black SS and get HHRSS for a personalized tag, can it be also read as 'hearse'?:lol:
