We plan on putting on seven times that , though how long the four banger engine will last, and other moving parts like wheel bearings, cv joints, etc is unknown. I guess we'll know in time, eh?

I know what you mean. Every day I get a smile just looking at the lines and knowing its functionality. A real winner, Chevy! , But we know that here in this forum, don't we
Looks like we both have red ones. Not to many in my area, lots of boring silver ones. But then again, how can an HHR be boring?

Wow! I have never put that much mileage on a car in such a short period of time. I used to average 12000 per year. Of course now that I'm retired, it's even less. I just turned 9000 miles on my HHR in.....17 months. At this rate it just may outlast me!

Yep, it is a good day....to DRIVE!
I used to put 25K a year on my Corvairs when I was in my twenties, say twenty years back! These days between two cars we average thirtyfive thousand /YR.
I did put fifty K on my Taurus SHO one year, but otherwise usually stay around fifteen to twenty K annually.
These days the Corvairs are ragtops for summer use only so they get around eight hundred to two thousand miles per year. I have finally admitted that they are getting a little rare for daily use. Now THAT my friends is a sad day.!
