HHR version 1 or 3
NEWBY HERE!!! My dealer told me there are two versions of this HHR SS. however he had 4 on the lot and I drove all 4. 2 autos and 2 manual. ALL were version 1. not sure when the version 3's will be available.
NOW.....I'm 6' 8" tall , ingress and egress are nomimal, and the Knee room between the radio and steering wheel is limited , BUT I LOVE IT.
I am going to order one without the sunroof (for more headroom), and with the AA5 window delete, which is the only way I want one. Seems that on my dealers computer, it is available.
We will see in 6 to 8 weeks!

to the site!!! 1st question, what color you going to get? You have me confused with the Version 1 and 3 
. It seems some people are being told different storys on the AA5 option as well as color choices.

No Lie
Thats what the dealer told me.........the two tone seats come on the version 3 only. He may be wrong, what the hell do I know. I searched and cant find it either.
I do know that when I was in to the dealer on friday, plain as day there was an option on his screen that deleted AA5 window On the SS.

Well I went to the Chevy Dealer this afternoon to order my HHR-SS Turbo. They gave me the run around on first option I wanted. 
The rear panel delete on the SS. 
They said there is NO option on the dealer computer ordering site for this. 
So then I asked about the full panel SS & he said NO I think these were just for the introduction car shows. 
So my question is HAS ANYBODY ordered the rear panel delete on the SS ???????? Does anybody have a list of their SS order form with options ordered that they will share info with me
Should I eMail Bob Lutz at GM to ask these questions.
All Help will be appreciated. :twothumbs

I went to Sands Chevy in Phx, AZ. Sat. afternoon where HHRAZ got his Red-SS. 
I spent over a hour educating 15 salesmen 
about HHR's that I have learned off these forums. 
Only 3 people had seen HHRAZ's Red-SS. The salesman Supervisor found the AA5 option on their dealer computer website. He is going to have the order specialist call Chevy Monday & then call me. 
I told them I know about 12 people that would like a SS with the rear panel delete. 
I will post about it after they call me.

Another Newbee here, currently a PT Cruiser GT owner, I am VERY interested in the HHR SS! I am wondering how long it will be before Chevy updates their "Build your Own" area to allow pricing a passenger version of the SS with the rear quarter window delete option. Right now all it shows is the panel version listings.
If I am able, I would like to get one in Imperial Blue with the AA5 option, sunroof and a 5 Speed.
