i just bought my ss 1 month ago with the same requirements. I specifically wanted a 2010 SS manual. I had to drive 300 miles to pick mine up. But it was worth it for the price. There arent too many manual HHRs on the road regardless of trim level.

I specifically went after an auto, mostly because well, who wants to line em up *****es!

So... I finally was able to test drive a manual transmission HHR SS! Needless to say, I was impressed. The salesperson let me "stretch its legs" so to speak, and I must say the HHR SS 5spd might follow me home in a few months I was shocked that the manual didn't get the same built-in armrest that the autos get... but that is a minor flaw on an impressive car. It felt like driving a much more expensive car, was extremely comfortable, and I couldn't get over how quite the ride was driving down the road and on the freeway... Those seats are just so comfortable! (This coming from a guy driving a cobalt XFE with uncomfortable seats :/)

Welcome to the site!! If you click on my photo link I prob have the package you're looking for if you want to see a pic of it. Its a 2010 SS. I got it from a dealer with the performance pkg 5spd, and the turbo upgrade kit, and it only had 36k miles on it when I got it. The cool thing was the dealer had no idea what the turbo kit was. I spent 6 months looking until I found exactly what I wanted, it was worth the wait. I had to drive from Los Angeles to San Diego to get mine. Like everyone said, this package is rare. I would sell you mine but I dont' think I could find another one for a long time. If you have the patience to find what you want, and are willing to drive a long way if needed to get it, do it you won't regret it.

I drove about 150 miles away to pick up my 5 spd SS. It had everything I was looking for.. Red, red/black interior, 5 spd, and sunroof.

I have had it for close to a year now and it is still fun to fly through the gears. Automatics are boring.

Maybe, but 5 speeds are slow, I don't think there is even one in the top ten..

LOL. It is fast enough for my purposes.

Should you interested, I'm selling my 2009 SS. It is a 5 speed, with Brembo brakes, LSD, Giovanni wheels, less than 58K miles, clean Carfax. I'm asking $13,500. Send me a PM if interested.

When I want to drive an automatic, I drive my Ford Fusion (boring automatics; Uhh). Can't imagine driving my SS on a back country winding road with an auto. Just can't get connected with the mechanics of the vehicle. Guess it's a different world today. I have a feeling that somehow the iPad is to blame for the lack of "mechancial/physical participation" with our vehicles.
