Got my SS 2/29/08

Victory Red, Sunroof, LSD, Manual, Performance Seat, 7 speaker system

Had 11 miles on it
I special ordered it 4 weeks ago. It is my first manual car and I think it is great. Some noises I am not used to like the Turbo here and there. My only major complaint is the rear view mirror is right in my line of sight.

3000 Rpm at 80 mph

Are you sure you have the mirror as far up as it can go? It should/could go almost to the headliner.

4 weeks? That's good news, I just ordered mine Friday and was trying to come up with something to pass the time for 6 weeks. Enjoy the drive, can't wait to see the pics.

Of course, since it was a bracing 70F today, the sunroof was open, so my hand shoots up and I start waving. He must have thought "what the ??" and as he came closer, realized I was waving at him and I was in an HHR and lo and behold, he actually waved back!!

In my 6+ months with Blackie, that was my *first* official HHR wave!
I'm even more thrilled as it was an SS and from my same dealership!

not me but I'll have to be on the look out. This makes SS #3 for me.
cobalt blue nova, candy apple red nova, and victory red HHR. I have all three still and I'm 23 I hope to have room for them all as I get older.
maybe I need a commercial building LOL.
