Three pretty cool videos too!

I loved the interview with Bob. I just love that name for some reason!

Yes I didn't and I'm not happy about it. We get too much rain here and the switches tend to fail when they get wet. Chevy should have learned from Ford's mistake.

As someone who has purchased a HHR Panel so recently that it hasn't been delivered yet, I'm not really sure what to do. My original plan was to use the HHR as an in between vehicle (98 S-10 - 08 Panel - Imreza STI

)

I think panels can be modified to look much better than the SS, but the SS has a turbo, so that evens it out so far. How much will the SS be though? If it's around 5K more, that's getting pretty close to Impreza territory. If under though, I might have to trade in the Panel. Although I do like to work on vehicles myself.

Who am I kidding? I'll probably just stick with my plan and try to act like the SS never existed. Well, maybe just one test drive.

Okay, for all the complaints that were posted about the window switches being moved to the center stack, of course we're going to hear about it when they move 'em back to the door!

Love me that SS! If I wasn't so in love with Daytona Blue Metallic and broke as hell, I'd buy me an SS.

Oh well. I'll just run mine 'til the wheels fall off and buy a '10 Camaro 'vert.

So am I the only person on here to notice that there are no center arm rests?

I have to tell you, I would not like that. Tell me I am missing something in the photos.

The automatic version will have an armrest with a cell phone holder built in (not shown in the photos). The manual does not get one because it will get in the way (I think)...
