We own two HHR 1LTs, a 2006 and 2010. My wife has the 2006 and we have been looking at comparable SUVs as a replacement. So far, nothing has really compared in terms of value and features. I am guessing there are no new 2011 HHRs available -- none at our Arizona dealerships. We are looking at the Equinox as a possible. Has anyone had to replace their HHR and what did you get?

 

How about a slightly used SS

 

they are rare. i live in Texas and my local dealership had to go to Missouri to get my panel. not sure if any new ones still sitting on the lot or not.

 

Try a search on www.cars.com or another vehicle shopping search engine, as drummerdude stated, you'll find some LS panels still out there....but you'll have to look under some rocks and be prepared to travel in order to get the one you want.

 

On www.cars.com I only saw 22 new HHRs.

Looks like Kimball Motor Company of San Luis Obispo, CA has two. Only 6 of the 22 in the search return are west of the Mississippi

 

Thanks. What would you all get if you had to replace your HHR with something that provided the same value (size, fuel, capacity, ride)?

 

Me I would just buy another used one
if I wanted something a little bigger that does not look as good and had to buy new I would buy an equinox seeing how they claim 30 plus MPG

 

i think i would just repair mine divots. i have 151,000 miles and runs virtually like new. good luck on your search.

 

I tried Autotrader and found about 35-40 new 2011 & 2010 HHR leftovers at various dealers nationwide, including 2 2010 SS' that were also listed as new leftovers.

 

My Dad likes mine so much, and they just sold their second car, that I struck a deal with him. They are about to go purchase a 'new' (under 10k miles 2011) HHR for my Mom to drive. Which means it will see the road 2 or 3 times a month and maybe 3 to 4k miles a year if it's lucky.

Then, once I have paid off and miled out my HHR here in a couple of years, I'll just swap them out and pay them the difference they want for theirs. Boom, Start over with a low miles, perfectly cared for HHR. - See? Planning ahead. :)

I say buy another HHR. I am loving my HHR more and more every day I have her and I hate the idea that someday in the distant future I will have gone through this one and another.

One thing Chevy does strange... come out with a popular design, that holds it's value and then right when it hits its peak... 'Well time to pull that model! Doing too good. Can't let that happen!' What it seems like anyway.

Hope you find what you are looking for. If I had to pick something besides the HHR I'd probably agree with the Equinox. Brother has one and it is a nice vehicle.
