Wheelie and I listen to Church worship music, and I throw in some "LIKE A ROCK!" music from Bob Seger for Wheelie, he likes that song., Esp. because Chevy used it in the 80's for thier truck promotions!
to the site and congrats on your upcoming purchase!!

Two more sleeps until I get my HHR! Man, I feel like a kid at Christmas! Thanks for all the replies, guys! 
Hey Chizzer, I got mine at Sheridan Chevrolet in Pickering.
The more I think of it, the more I'm liking the choice of Johnny B. Goode as the song I listen to first while drive away from the dealership. After that I guess I'll return to my regularly scheduled programming!
I'm already thinking about mods. I'm going to have my Kicker solobaric sub & box along with my Audiobahn amp (and possibly my capacitor if required) installed ASAP but I want to keep the stock deck....at least for now. I want to add some lower grille protection for the rad/compressor as well. After that it'll probably be smoothie lock knobs and possibly an air intake....but I'm getting way too far ahead!
I'm still unsure about whether or not to change the oil though.

Okay, for your first song, make it "Highway Star" by Deep Purple and make it very very loud
The lyrics are perfect....
Nobody gonna take my car
Im gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
Its gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh its a killing machine
Its got everything
Like a driving power big
Fat tyres and everything
I love it and I need it
I bleed it
Yeah its a wild hurricane
Alright hold on tight
Im a highway star
Im a highway star
Im a highway star

Hi guys, just a quick update (as I'd like to jump right back into the HHR and cruise!). I picked up the HHR this morning and everything was fine. Everything looks nice and clean except for my licence plates from my old car. So far, everyone who I've shown it to have been impressed.
I'm going to be adding my Kicker solobaric sub box and Audiobahn amp to the car, possibly tomorrow. The factory set up is satisfactory to me (for now at least). Can't wait to hear more boom!
Although I'm going to miss my old Monte Carlo Z34, I get the feeling that the HHR and I will have some very good times....haven't had that feeling since my first car (a 1985 Camaro Z28).
Anyway, thanks again to everyone! If you'll excuse me, I'm off to do some more cruisin'!
Oh, and by the way, the first song I chose to play driving out of the dealership was "Johnny B. Goode" by Chuck Berry. :twothumbs
Cheers!
