I also expect a late start up for the 2010. Either way they will cut numbers but will not idlel the plant for a long time. It is not goo to have too many days supply but it also is expensive to shut down plants for a long time.
I also expect they have the line slowed down too with only one shift.
As for a 09 built in April or May of 08 that did not happen! Someone has some wrong info and have a wrong date.
09's were built in in July and on. GM would and will not built a 09 in May on the line while still builting 08's.
The only 09 at that time may have been a prototype or two that was hand assemblled or created in Detroit. They test and crush them when they are done as they do no make it to the market.

Looks like the official release of 2010 hhr options and features... is it ALIVE???
Good night everybody!
PS. will be dreaming of some of the ammenities my 2006 doesn't have (and no, I haven't taken my own mods wishlist seriously yet, either)

Nothing really big that is new if anything some options are now standard or not available.
This is the last year on the SS. You no longer have a choice of interior color other than Ebony, no roof rack and the performance dash I think is standard.
2011 many be the last for the HHR in general and they will sell intro 2011 before they are gone. Do not expect much to change other than colors and option being made standard or deleted.

They will most likely cut back on 09 either with a early plant closing or a closing before the end of the yeat.
I also expect a late start up for the 2010. Either way they will cut numbers but will not idlel the plant for a long time. It is not goo to have too many days supply but it also is expensive to shut down plants for a long time.

I purchased my 2008 on July 5, 2008 and it seemed like within a few days or a week or so that a member on here from Colorado, I believe it was, posted about taking delivery of the 1st 2009 SS in the state. Anyhow, it seemed to be too soon for anything that would have been built in July to already be delivered and sold. Of course, as you get older time flies, and my timing could be off.
