How many times have this happen to you?

I bought my 2LT on 8/13 and still to this day I have been having people ask me what kind of a car is it? It is a great feeling driving a new car and not seeing anyone drive the same thing. We are the lucky ones for now.

It is apple picking time and today I stopped by an old friends farm to check on the winter apple picking. Had a good talk with him, he is 89 this year and he looked over toward my HHR and his eyes got big and all he could say was "What kind of car is that"? When I told him it was a Chevy, all he could say was ain't ever seen anything built like that by Chevy!

Ask me all about it and I told him hell the keys are in it take her for a ride, he said thank you for the offer, some other time, too busy right now.

it is a fun car to drive and to talk about.

Ain't that the truth. Folks are always stopping and saying what a great looking car it is. I totally dig that. I can only imagine what attention it will get after some killer mods like a top chop and some ghost flames. Not till later though, I'll keep it stock till I have enough money to modify it. Hey, we can at least say we have the first editions of this model. :)

I think anyone who drives one gets looks no matter what. And the "Is that an 06 cruiser" got old QUICK. If they're stupid enough to not look at oh i dont know a chevy emblem and then ask if its a cruiser they deserve to be smacked

I live in Staten Island, NY and I since I had it I have not seen one yet on the road. I was in South New Jeresy last night and while I was getting gas the guy who was pumping the tank kept on asking me questions about the car and he said it was the first one he pumped gas for. 2 Great Things about New Jeresy (1 the pump the gas for you, and the gas is cheaper
