I'm sort of digging the new GMC Terrain...it's got traces of HHR styling with its fender shape, and it shares the same 2.4 liter(which seems too small for a CSUV of that size), and I like all its goodies...even though it's the Eqinox's replacement.

I have driven the new Nox with the 2.4 DI and it does well around town. It will speed up on a on ramp well but needs rev'd up.

The 3.0 DI is also available if needed. The new 2010 Terrain and Nox are sisters with different dresses and dash lights so choose what style you like and you are geting the same platform.

I an say the new Nox is a totally different vehicle than the old one. It was a very enjoyable drive and we may look to buy one once demand drops. They are selling so fast GM has has to buy Suzuki out of the Canada plant and expand production. As of now the dealers are not giving much off sticker so I will wait for it unless something elese comes along. It will be a V6 Too.

And yall are talking about non HHR's in the HHR General section and not the Lounge area why? Started out as a innocent question and turned into a synopsis of a different breed vehicle.... just curious
If this were a Ricer it would have been shut down long ago...like the 3rd responce in...

But what I REALLY like is the fact that it doesn't look much like an Equinox at all! The Torrent was just a rebadged Equinox, where this actually looks like a different car. There was no reason to buy a Pontiac over Chevrolet before, where now they actually look like different vehicle, even if they are the same underneath. I think that's what GM needs to do.

Apparently, you've never been to South Florida. The elderly here love their Caddies and Town Cars.
