Finally took the plunge and bought a new 09 HHR SS Victory Red with the Automatic tranny this past week. It was the only new SS model available in Anchorage and it was at Alaska Sales and Service. I also ordered the Stage I performance upgrade kit which the dealer will install when it arrives sometime next week.
I've had my eye on the HHR SS for about a year now and wanted a performance vehicle that was practical, looked good and got decent gas mileage. I sold off one of our classic cars (64 Corvair) and also my 91 GMC Syclone pickup. Got decent money for both.
Is there anyone else from Alaska on this forum with the HHR SS?

Not in Alaska, I'm in Mass.
We got Seattle's weather this year.
I've been watching Ice Road Truckers though.
What an awesome place to live.
I'm waiting on my Stage kit also.
Don't know how the 5 speed guys do it.
I need both hands to pass when I romp on it and I used to be a carpenter.
The torque steer's crazy.
It should get real interesting with 90 more ft/lbs

I'm looking forward to the seeing how it performs with the kit. I'm used to my Syclone which was a beast; 0-60 in 4.48 sec and the 1/4 in 13.4 all stock.
