125k miles, probably about ready for shell blasting the intake valves.

Kinda lame. You really needed a dedicated Amber in the rear for higher visibility.

Amber on the rear is illegal. If you have ever followed an HHR at night you will notice the tail lights are really dim, they disappear at about 10 car lengths.

Oh ok I was talking about the turn signals. I converted my reverse lights to amber turn signals. And put some 4 led light pods for reverse lights.

how did you know though?

I've an avid believer that Amber turn signals are essential front and rear. Especially led and especially super bright led.

Anyways the orange ss sold today

The silver ss for $6500 Looks good though.

They will be in the area tomorrow for a party so we won't even have to drive more than 10 minutes to test drive it. That other $6,000 can go to tune-up and what not. Maybe even air bag suspension.

What was the little center storage turbo box thingy I've seen? Was it a tuner? I'm assuming a closed center storage box means no ss turbo tuner box thingy? I remember seeing it go for $900???

here are pics of the silver.
