HHR's must be selling well...

I'm seeing them in New Jersey. This state isn't exactly a bonanza for domestic car manufacturers. It's actually quite the opposite. I think the 500/Freestyle were on sale for 6 months before I ever saw one locally.

Re: HHR's must be selling well...

The car is simply amazing for what they cost. 2nd best car in the cross-oversegmant in my opinion. #1 is a turbo AWD Subaru Forester. But to the average joe its a hell of a bargin. I think it was Car and Drivel that said they would rather have one insted of the Sion fridge.

I'm in Cherry Hill, but I don't see the same thing. Very few domestic cars unless they are old and cheap or new and very popular. There are still lots of domestic suv's around... but cars.... I recently went to lunch with a couple of people from close to Windsor Ca, and was talking about the number of domestic cars around here. When we came outside, the entire parking lot (maybe 30 cars) contained only two domestic cars, an SUV and a Pontiac GP.

Re: HHR's must be selling well...

I've been seeing a ton of HHR's and cobalts. The more I see both cars the more I like them. I love the HHR in black.

When I saw the Cobalt at the auto show, I was not impressed. However, after seeing many of the SS's on the roads and checking out a few at the dealer, they are very slick cars. I wouldn't mine owning one, but two cars in my stable is plenty for now.

I've seen 3 Impala's in the last 3 days, one was an SS, and IMO they look much better in person. The HHR's, I lost count, I've seen a few so far. And yes the Cobalts are cleaning up nicely! I knew the HHR would be a hit!

Re: HHR's must be selling well...

Ive seen 1 hhr and several Cobalts. An Impala circled around me the other day and I had to be saved by the lettering on the rear to decide what car it was. I really like them!

Yup it is.

"For those who doubted it, it's an absolute sell-out," he boasted, during a preview at the automaker's Warren, Michigan Technical Center. August sales totaled 8000, Lutz said, noting that the automaker has already ordered two increases in production capacity for the much-maligned HHR. And its early success, Lutz stressed, came even though the crossover was not included in GM's employee-pricing incentive program.
