I don't see the HHR listed as an eligible vehicle for this program. According to the cars.com site at:
http://www.cars.com/go/advice/Story....bject=clunkers
They could be wrong!

Here's a FAQ from that site..................
What new vehicles may be acquired under the CARS program?
The CARS Act applies to new vehicles. Thus, used vehicles do not qualify under the program.
The new vehicle must have a manufacturer's suggested retail price of not more than $45,000. That price appears on the window sticker on new vehicles. The new vehicle must also achieve minimum combined fuel economy levels. For passenger automobiles, the new vehicle must have a combined fuel economy value of at least 22 miles per gallon. For category 1 trucks, the new vehicle must have a combined fuel economy value of at least 18 miles per gallon. For category 2 trucks, the new vehicle must have a combined fuel economy value of at least 15 miles per gallon. Category 3 trucks have no minimum fuel economy requirement; however, there are special requirements that apply to the purchase of category 3 vehicles.
As noted above, the CARS Act also requires that NHTSA make available on an Internet website a comprehensive list of new vehicles that meet the requirements of the program. Until that information is posted on the program's website, consumers may determine whether a new vehicle meets the fuel economy requirements of the program in two ways. First, the combined fuel economy of a new vehicle will be posted under the heading "Combined Fuel Economy" on the window sticker ("Monroney label") of a new vehicle. Second, you may also find the combined fuel economy value of a new vehicle by visiting http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/findacar.htm and searching for their vehicle to find its combined fuel economy value. When searching that website, consumers will need to know their vehicle's model year, make, model, engine size, and transmission type.

That is a great deal!!! I paid 14k for a 2008 HHR SS with 4600 miles. You just have to shop around and be willing to negotiate. The dealer bought the car from a friend of his who got into an accident on an ATV. I don't think the dealer new the differnece between the base and SS model.

what !
that is a GREAT deal ....i'm jealous.....and mad.....i went to 2 different gm dealers when they were having the red tag sale back in oct/nov 08 ... a small dealer and a high volume being the 2 different dealers....i offered them $17,500 cash for cars that had less than $19,000 on the tag , they said they would not take a penny less ....my main thing i would do different is to get a ss .....i wish i had waited to buy from us (the taxpayers} , oh , that's right i did...i got mine from a private owner .......but i am happy that you got a great deal

Is that w/ using cash for clunkers? I am assuming so for that price. If they would have had the cash for clunkers, I would have got mine down to $19k. But instead I sold my piece of crap daily driver for $400. oh well watcha gonna do
