Considering buying one of the last new 2011s...

Not having looked at Chevy's vehicle inventory search engine since I bought my '06, they sure haven't improved it much in five years!

Has anyone found a better way to search for new HHRs, short of having a salesman do it for you?

Thanks in advance

Try cars.com, just input your zip code and the range you'd be willing to travel, lots of choices left in some markets.

Yeah cars.com and carsoup are the two I look at.
But new inventory on those sites looked pretty low, last I checked only 250 came up at "any distance" and alot of them were not really new, they had miles on them.

There'a a lot of 2011 rentals that cameinto market since the Spring. One word of caution. The rentals don't have auto start it's a factory delate for renal fleet purchase.

Unless they've changed over the years,OnStar is also deleted from the rentals.

Not many new wagons left out there.
I had to travel 239 miles to get mine
and the dealership was total bloody rot about it
when I arrived. But yet I got a new red one.

Got a Silver LT a couple months back with 8k miles on it from a local dealer. GM warranty just like I had got it new, with onstar-XM-wireless entry/lock Now people in this forum have indicated that if I a certain code on the sheet in my dash (which I do have) I can do remote start. That would require new fobs and I guess a reprogram of the DIC to enable it.

You should keep the one you have, unless theres problems or you have racked up a ton of miles on it.

Not much changed through the years really, and they dropped options on the '11s. No 2LT Panels.

I always wanted to see you Complete your Custom work on it.

I liked the idea of the split rear doors you started on.

If you don't plan on finishing that Mod, send them my way, i'll do it.

Oh no, my black '06 isn't going anywhere, and the mods will get done...someday. And it won't be black, probably hugger orange It just rolled over 20K no-winter miles.

I was hoping to add another to "the stable" before they're all gone, but it's probably not in the cards. When we have disposable income again someday, I'll pick up another, it just won't be new
