i dont like it ...rather have a colbalt
this little mini-van/SUV has grown on me over the past year or so that i've seen them around more. I'm liking the retro styling with updated equpiment. I've thaught about getting my mom one as it would fit her just right but I don't think I could ever own one myself until I have kids or something, but that's a long ways off (at least I'm hoping it is).

It's still 100x better than a PT cruiser IMO.
its made to compete with the dodge caliber srt-4

Just a little useless information. HHR stands for Higher Head Room. What happen was GM brought over the engineer who designed the PT Cruiser. And one complaint he always heard with the PT Cruiser was the head room. So the HHR was born.

Wrong, HHR stands for Herritage High Roof
Herritage after the 1949 Suburbans that it takes design cues from, and high roof, well, because of the roof.

I'm sorry but even when it first came out I thought the HHR was Fugly and it still is. I don't like the Caliber all that much, it looks like a mini-Magnum, But I'd take it over the HHR any day.
