I have been looking for a vehicle that combines utility and performance for a while and I stumbled across the HHR SS. Unfortunately they were out of production so I set out to find a nice low mileage one. Last week I lucked out and found one fairly close to me and purchased it. The Specs:

• 2010 HHR SS, Silver over black.
• 5 speed
• Performance Package
• Sunroof

I think it has every option. Best part it had less than 11K miles on the clock. I paid $16,500 which was a little more than I wanted but not bad considering.

I only have two complaints, first I am 6ft. and in the most comfortable seating position my hair rubs on the roof. Second, it doesn't have near enough storage. I would kill for center console storage.

The only thing i would like right now is a good iPhone mount. Any suggestions?

Anyway, that is my intro. Glad to be here and enjoying the car immensely.

Congrats and !!!

Can't help with your question, though, but even at 5'9", I can see your headroom issue. I have to adjust the seat "just so", to fit in with a helmet, too.

 

Congrats on the SS !!
I am 6' 2" and dont have any issue with headroom, because i have the seat lowered.
Btw, welcome to the site !

 

I think the sunroof eats a little of the precious headroom. Oh well, still having fun with it..

 

Welcome to the site !!! Like this ?

 

congrats on your new sled. yes i am 6 3" with the electric seats i have the butt low and the thighs high. been comfortable, and who need to see the light turn green anyway. and yes the sunroof eats a little headroom but soooo worth it.

 

Yes, How hard is that to reach while driving?

 

Haven't you heard, it's Illegal to use your phone while driving !!

It's easy to reach.

 

im 5'10/5'11 and i have no issues with head room, i dont understand. Did you adjust the seat height?

 

Openning the sun roof and raising your seat - works also.
