Yes I thought that was weird too. I've got XM, Onstar, but no subwoofer. I even asked the dealer if I could upgrade the stereo + get the subwoofer but because I have the auto volume thingy they said it can't be done.. Oh well, it's still an SS!!

08 SS could only have the performance seat as an option on the driver side.

Early 09 it was still an option drivers side.

A month or two later after production started in 09 they made it standard on the drivers side and optional on the passenger.

A few months later in 09 they made it standard on both sides.

As they kept increasing the price they made more things standard.

My 08 has a performance seat on the driver side but I changed it myself. Not hard but can get pricey if you do not have a discount.

Hmm, ok I'll take your word for it. Chances are your memory is better than mine.

Believe me I was upset as I bought an 08 with the driver seat as an option only to see a month later in an 09 as a standard seat while then they offered the passenger seat as an option.

I was just behind the curve on that one the whole way.

I wanted them on both sides but the price I had on a 08 was not worth waiting. With the discounts I get I was able to convert the passenger seat for about $170.

I feel your pain. When I purchased my 2006 HHR running boards were optional. In 2007 they became standard equipment on Canadian models. I asked the dealership if they would put them on for free and even talked to the GM corporate office but they only offered me a small discount if I wanted to order the running boards and have them installed.

Yeah, that pinstripe was originally on the Spring Editions, but now (or at least last year) was an option. Says "HHR" on the very back.

Thumbs up

Can you get the SSmodel in the panel version? I like the looks of the two door without all the windows. Seems to me that it would be the one to trick out.
