A sweet ride

2009 Chevrolet HHR SS 4dr Wagon (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 5M)
5 of 5 people found this review helpful

Victory Red HHR SS turbo. Excellent performance. Very comfortable inside, high bolstered sport seats, electric adjustable seats, are excellent for me and I am 6'1". Plenty of head room,leg room. Inside has a comfy-cozy feel, but not cramped. Nice ride and the 18" wheels help that cause. Very smooth on the highway. Have to get use to this 260 horse. Doing 80 on highway without realizing. ou do not feel the speed in this car. Very quiet. Loaded. Got it all on this SS. Have 900 miles in 2 months, and so far having fun and love it. No reliability issues yet (holding my breath on the brake issue plaguing this car).

Great Value

Have the 2lt 2.4 auto great car, traded in my 4 door ram hemi and have no regrets. Great mileage, 22avg on e85,30 mpg avg on regular. Have gotten 32 mpg avg at 75 mph with the a/c on. Lots of room for 4 people and luggage, pulls a small trailer for a dirt bike/lawn mower. Fun to drive, oil changes are breeze. Cheaper quality, lots of plastic. I paid $18,000 on a $24,000 sticker though so can't complain. Good looking little gas save with lots of room. Chose this over the Kia soul due to room/mileage.

Rust on all 5 doors

6 months after purchasing my HHR, I found rust on the bottom, inside seam on 3 of 5 doors. 8 months later, the rust returned, worse then what it was before it was repaired, but now on all 5 doors. It was repaired again just 2 months ago and I will be watching. I have looked at two other HHR's they have rust on the doors as well.

I bought this car in 2017 for $ 3000.00 and it needed a battery , tires , no jack , but since then I'v made the car look a lot nicer . Red in color , black interior , Had it buffed out , put a new chrome grill , new windshield , new front chrome headlights , made to fit hood scoop , duel exhaust double chrome tips , chrome wheel mag looking covers , remote start , heavy duty floor mats , red and black steering wheel cover , of all the other hhr's I have seen , mine is one of a kind . No problems mechanically and does NOT use any oil between oil changes , reliable car . I;m 77 years old and had many cars in my life . This is the best car I have ever owned ...
