New toy. Gotta figure out what needs to be fixed. It'll be a few weeks.

 

Well first off , order a set of Chrome or black lug nuts, Mike has them for a great price, the steel caps have fallen off

https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/clas...ug-nuts-59206/

Then have any codes read and write them down.
A new set of Depo’s would spruce up the front or OEM headlights

 

Already have Mike’s lugnuts; when I needed a set last year, I ordered two.

Plotting a trip to the local Chevy dealer, who’s been very helpful in the past, for accurate interpretation of any codes.

Would also like to figure out if it’s had any tunes.

On board w/ the depo’s, also, backend lights are a mess. This one appears to have been a one-owner that spent its entire life in the Arizona desert. So a bit sunburned, but I’ve been in Ohio most of my life; happy to have an old car that’s rust-free.

Interior is very nice. Will probably focus on mechanicals 1st. A little ratty can be fun.

 

PulpFriction- Sweet, Congrats on the new Hot Rod, looks Sharp.

And looks to be lowered, I believe..

Are those BremboŽ brakes on it. looks like in front.

 

Sure looks clean , maybe someone here has extra tail lights or a set of IPCW Bermuda Black tails they aren’t using!

 

Thanks! Agree it looks lowered, wonder what else has been done, would love to interview the prior owner but got it from a dealer who got it at auction. Apparently one owner prior to that.

Them’s Brembos. Also RPD, Seat upgrade both sides. Need to figure out which RPO codes were standard on this model and which were options. Seems to have all the performance upgrades. Could have done without the sunroof and cigarette lighter.

It has California smog. Wonder if they all had that or not. If not, wonder what it means to me. Was apparently delivered to a CA dealer and then immediately shipped to an Arizona dealer.

Clean inside, pic doesn’t reveal a bit of wear and tear outside. EVERYTHING seems to work except the TPM’s, hopefully just the sensors.

This is a budget operation so would definitely be interested in taillight options. Darkening all the lights one way or another would be appealing, wheels have a few scuffs but no deep gouges so it might make sense to black those out, too.

 

All HHR SS models include the sunroof as standard equipment.

Is this an automatic or 5-speed manual? Manuals with the performance package (Brembo, RPD,etc) included the LSD.

I think all HHRs meet California emissions.

Not true, only 2010 SS included sunroof standard.

This is true.

This is not true.

And it does not look lowered to me.

 

The 2010 SS didn't have many options available other than ext. color, and auto or standard trans (the Perf. Pkg option available with 5 speed)
Standard equipment included on all:
Sunroof
Ebony interior (only color for 2010)
RPD
Performance seats, both front.
Audio system w/7 Pioneer speaker(only choice)

In fact. I bet your RPO sticker will look pretty much like mine ( except the Ext. paint color)

 

Thanks, FG. Here's the list from the glovebox, sans VIN, slightly reordered according to the way my spreadsheet wants to sort, with descriptions mostly gleaned from these awesome forums. I understand MOST of these codes. EDIT- Among other things, dunno what's included in "1SS Package - Option 17."
