Did Chevy announce an HHR SS in the works?
Sorry if this has been asked before, but I thought I read something about this somewhere but forgot where.
I'm keenly interested in this. Seems a natural to drop in the SS S/C motor from the Cobalt, but I dunno...

Are you joining us at Clearmans? If I remember right, you have yet to get your HHR? We hope to see you there, HHR an or not!

I posted another link on here somewhere that shows pics of a couple different HHR SS test mules (06 or 07s with intercoolers slapped onto the front), along with Solstice and Sky turbos.

Boy now that's what I'm talkin about...
thanks for those pix...
Same specs for that motor as in the Saturn Sky Redline or Solstice turbo?

I talked to a GM rep at the "Then & Now" tour when it was here in Denver. He said we'd be looking at something similar to what's in the Solstice. But then again, I knew more about the HHR than he did. 
He asked me where I learned all this stuff...and I told him online forums rock...they are just not places where people complain...we discuss all sorts of cool things

Maybe they'll even make the SS model in special colors... like Corvette Velocity Yellow.
Are you reading this GM?
