What's an HHR?......Duh!

Unreal how many people never heard of the HHR!! and sad that I must explain it away as Chevy's classy version of the PT cruiser. Funny how they all agree it's much nicer

I do antiques & collectibles for a living, so I see ALOT of people every weekend. My VR HHR is always shiny so EVERYBODY notices her and with so many compliments about the bodystyle. I'm certain that i've helped boost HHR sales in our area, several people were really horny over it, looking it all over, with me playing salesman "naturally"

Hey GM, Ever think of advertising for the HHR?

GM is famous for not advertising cars/trucks that sell well...... Then discontinuing those cars sighting a drop in sales.....

Well if you don't advertise, new buyers are not going to think about buying that model.......

I live in New York. Most of the "fashion aficionados" around here forgot that American car manufacturers even exist. When I brought my new HHR home, one of my neighbors actually asked if it was a Nissan. Asian cars are "en vogue" for the fashion conscious idiots here.

You have to remember, GM was either bankrupt, or going bankrupt for all the the HHR's life... They weren't advertising for any cars.

That right there is one of the big differences between every else and living in michigan aka motor city. There simply aren't as many foreign cars here.
