Well, its a real plain jane, nothing special looking. I need to tint the windows and remove the wheel covers and put on some chrome center caps. And replace the shifter knob-- factory shifter knob looks way too cheapo against an interior that is otherwise pretty nice. EPA sticker rating is 20/26 but the avg mpg readout is @ 29.1 so far-- hope its accurate... but I went into it expecting slightly lower fuel economy than the HHR, so anything better than sticker is a bonus. AWD does cause an mpg hit in any vehicle.

Let's see, maybe you need to put some 18-20" wheels on it, stubbie, de-badge and re-badge with HHR, lower with some Eibachs, etc. and then you can continue to hang out.

LOL, too many angles where the HHR has curves... never be able to pull it off.

Okay, here's a couple pics. First priority is window tint and some better looking rims, nothing bling, just alloys. Stock steelies and covers got to go.







P.S. I told you it was a Plain Jane
