Hey guys!

Hello all! So my name is Christy & I just purchased a 2008 SS. It's dark blue(I forget the name) and so far we've tinted the taillights, removed the GM badges & painted both bowties black. I have always wanted one so when I found this one, I got it. Traded in my 2012 Nissan Juke SV AWD, maybe a crazy decision, but I missed customizing & car shows & things like that. The Juke is a hard vehicle to customize the right way. Before the Juke I had a lowered 2008 Cobalt LS with a lot of appearance mods & my husband had a lowered 2006 Cobalt SS/SC (needed a truck, so it's gone now) I was super active on the cobalt forums, and still kinda am. I can't wait to learn more about the SS & HHRs in general.
Oh and I'm from the beautiful Appalachian Mountains of VA!

Welcome to the site, Christy. if your ride is this dark blue, it is Imperial blue. Enjoy that SS, not a crazy decision at all.

Welcome from Michigan



Hi Christy

OK lets see some photos.

Best decision ever, getting rid of a Japanese car and getting an HHR and a Super Sport at that.

Hard to make an Asian car look good.

Mine is black but I love that blue shade

Neat thing is pulling up beside a Beemer with what he thinks is a stodgy wagon too. , he laughs, and then you dust 'em.
