Black on used car lot

I could not beleive my eyes yesterday. I was coming home and saw a black hhr on a small used car lot. They had it face to face with a used pt cruiser. I wonder why someone got rid of it so fast.

Used HHR

They've been out long enough that some rental agencies are replacing them. My local Enterprise has one. Just about every dealer around me has the Equinox and they're all selling for exactly the same price. They go up for auction and dealers scarf them up.

maybe the person who owned it couldn't handle all the compliments and people starring at such a spectacular vehicle..He probably traded it in for 2 Kia's..

There's a Sunburst Orange 1LT with 4000ish miles on it at a Kia dealer near here. When I was waiting for mine to come in, I couldn't resist stopping in there.... IIRC, they were asking about $100 less than I paid for my 2LT and it's missing a lot of features that mine has... Leather, Sunroof, other stuff-- I believe those two were the most expensive.

I'm pretty sure you can configure an identical model on GM's web site for less than the price the Kia dealer was starting at.

But, back to what you were saying... why would anyone trade one in so soon? And why for a Kia?

After a month, not surprising that it's still out there on the lot. Sure looks pretty, though...

I saw a used Red 1LT at the Ford dealership here. And one of the Chevy dealers has two LS's (one black w/11K miles, one silver w/1K+ miles) lined up with the new ones. I wouldn't read too much into it though. I imagine that the HHR is not for everyone... blasphemous, I know, but it's true. I would bet that the silver one I mentioned was the dealer demo since it had so few miles on it. So, not all of the used ones are dissatisfied owners...
