First post, might as well put it here.
08 panel 1lt
107k miles
Zero problems, dd for work, purchased in 2012 with 80k. Previoisly owned by chevy dealer in Cali. 100% rust free. Remarkably, panels stay cool in the sun, especially with all windows tinted, and remote start is blowing heat by the time I get in for winter. Just installed power sunroof to get some light in. Audio upgrade and coil overs are next, probably stop there. Was gonna trade this in but its just too good to let go.
I have owned many, many cars, from porches to trucks, and have zero complaints with this vehicle, sure its got its quirks, every car does, but this car does exactly what its made to do, and looks great doing it. Never expected so many compliments, makes me laugh, everyone thinks its custom lol.
Wish I could upload a pic, but of course its gotta be more complicated than it should be.

Got a couple of items at the local boneyard for the new HHR. A battery, negative battery cable, and hood props. Ditched the old engine wiring harness from the fuse panel. And connected the battery.
Happy to report, everything in the car pretty much functions. Sunroof, mirrors, lights, signals. I was even able to get the dash up and running. I'm in the high mileage club at 182,262.

I'm over 200,000 as of October 10, 2015
I missed the 200,000 mile pic by 77 miles when I saw 322,000 kilometres, I thought I better flip from metric to English and see if I'm close to 200,000
