Thinking about buying a HHR SS. Here are the specs.

08 HHR SS Black\Black auto 58k mi. $13500

any advice before I commit to buying\not buying?

 

Be sure to test drive the vehicle.

Visit the Kelly Blue Book site or the NADA site to see the approximate values of the HHR that you are looking into purchasing.

See if you can obtain the VIN and then contact your local Chevrolet dealership's service department to see if they will give you the service history of the vehicle.

Check out a Carfax for the vehicle.

I hope everything will go smoothly with this, no matter what you decide to do.

I see you owned an HHR before. So,what kind of advice are you looking for exactly?
Also a little more info on the SS. Like options and upgrades.

 

It may be equipped with the GM Turbo Upgrade kit. An easy check is to look at the upper TMAP sensor that is in plain sight located behind the radiator support when you open the hood.

If the sensor is black in color, fastened with 2 bolts and has multicolored wiring, it's stock. If the sensor has a blue & white BOSCH label, fastened with only 1 bolt and has white wiring, it has the kit. There's supposed to be an emission sticker under the hood and a "premium fuel required" sticker inside the fuel filler door, but the installer may or may not have affixed them.

Good luck and many happy miles...

 

I picked up my 08 ss 5 speed with 26k for 13500 I'm sure they can work on the price some I just got mine in jan.
