I just got back from a trip to Florida where I bought another HHR for family use. I bought it in Florida so it woudn't have years of rusting from the salt used in winter here. Its an 06 Red 1LT. Here is a picture with our other two 06 HHR 1LTs:



The blue and orange HHR is a 2.4L with manual transmission.

The orange HHR is a lowered 2.4L with auto transmission.

The new-to-us red HHR is a 2.4L with auto transmission.

nice

 

That looks like a Spring Edition, if so they only made 2300 I believe. Rare find today.

 

I forgot about the spring edition that was available.

The description of the spring edition I found online:

Victory Red exterior
Silver stripe decal running from hood to rear quarter
Two-tone interior with Ebony/Gray cloth seats
16" Sport chromed wheels
Chromed wheel center cap
Bright chrome exterior appearance package (B57)
Leather-wrapped steering wheel with redundant audio controls
Leather-wrapped shift knob
Foglamps (T37)
Roof mounted side rails (G63)
Body colored running boards (BVE)

I have all that, so you are right, it's a spring edition. My seats are the optional leather ebony/gray.

So far, the only issue I noticed is a plugged AC drain, on the trip from Florida it sure dumped a lot of water in the passenger footwell. Tonight I am doing an oil change and cleaning out the drain.

Nice find - good to see you jumping on the maintenance right away.

 

Nice, we'll have to meet up over there and get a pic with a blue HHR

 

Congrats on the new ride.!
Cool collection you have going there. !
