Of course people with the 2.2 may disagree and say the 2.2 is better.

Greetings again from Phoenix!
- MikeX: Get the 2.4; I test drove both the 2.2 and the 2.4 and liked the extra HP the 2.4 has - I have read a few reviews where the authors state that they wouldn't have guessed there was a 4-cyl. under the hood if they didn't already know it going in. Anyway, welcome! I've found the forums useful so far; glad to know there are several HHR fans out there.

It's a 2.4L, I checked the sticker on the dealer's web page that has it. The driver is going there at this very moment to pick it up. I should have it in 2-3 hours, depending on Dallas and Fort Worth rush hour traffic (poor guy!).
On the side - I busted the finance guy I was working with. He - of course - tried to sell me an extended warranty, which is fine. He told me that the new vehicle warranty was 3 yrs/36k miles, HOWEVER, he told me "there are some things that are only being covered now for 12 months/12k miles, so you should really get this extra coverage". I said I had read the Chevrolet warranty and there was no mention of anything being covered to only 12 months/12k miles. I said no thanks and finished with him. But that statement bothered me, so I called Chevrolet and asked them about what he told me, and they said, no, the coverage was for 3 yrs/36k miles, bumper to bumper, period. So I got ahold of the finance manager and told him what happened - well, I got a call back and an apology for his boy telling me that erroneous information, and that some of his employees needed "more education".
LOL
