Camaro in Feb.

The HHR would have been a poor convertible like the PT.

Hint. Not everything coming is going to be boring or over $50K.

With two new RWD platforms and Turbo 4 and V6 engines added to a new V8 coming we will have something for everyone.

Then new fwd cars are not bad either. Drive a new Regal and see what the new cars will be better than. THe next Epsilon cars will improve on the Regal.

No, 2011 is the very last year. There will be no 2012 HHRs.

Around labor day of this year, GM was offering $4000 off 2010 HHR's.

That caught my eye. I was in the process of trying to make a deal on a 2011 Mustang and Ford has really cut back on the X-plan. The dealer wouldn't budge on the price either. I can't blame them, they are selling all they get.

It's the wife's car anyway, she likes unique and doesn't care much about power, so I went to the Chevy dealer on 9/10/10. They had 5 left. There was a Victory Red HHR LT1 with $2300 in options. I would have liked the 2.4 liter engine but the 2.2 is OK.

They took the car out of the showroom, I drove it, I told the salesman I could live with it but wasn't real excited. He offered to get me another $1000 off and I told him he had a deal.

When I go out in the garage, I tell myself it's a cool looking car, the wife loves it and overall, I am happy I bought it. Had it not been for the huge discount, I would not have even looked twice. Sticker is way too high for what you are getting. Even when they first came out, I thought this.

Whether this kind of deal comes by again, I couldn't say. Keep a close eye on the ads and stay in touch with a salesman you trust. Give him an idea what the car is worth to you. It also helps being willing to take a car they have on the lot.

I too could have cared little about the HHR till I drove a SS. Once I drove it I was sold. The Styling I did not hate it or really love it. But once I got it one the styling has really grown on me.

If the SS had not driven so good I would have never bought this car and really missed out on one fun vehicle.
