I loved the HHR from the first time I saw it.... shortly after we had purchased our 2005 Aveo. Mr. C said no way.... said it was the ugliest thing he had ever seen. So it was him I had to convince... After he drove it, he liked it and did allot of research on it. Maybe if you act like you don't like it so much,she will : lol:

There are alot of women on the forum who drive the HHR. I'm the grandmother of 6 and came from a Honda Prelude.I bought the Honda because I wanted something that was not grandma-like and that filled the bill. Then when I decided I wanted a new car...I was going to buy a Cruiser...but I didn't like that and saw the HHR and fell in love. The ride is great...and they are an eye catcher. I love driving something that you can go down the road in and it sticks out in the crowd.
My family loves my HHR and none of them consider it a station wagon. In fact, my 3 year old granddaughter calls it "Grandma's NASCAR" It's all a matter of what a person wants...and I wanted something that didn't look like all the other cars made these days...and the HHR fits the bill.

It's hard to tell if your wife will like it or not. My husband and I saw a bunch of HHR's driving down the freeway last year, and both wondered what they were. As luck should have it one pulled into the gas station where we stopped and we asked what it was, and how he liked it. We found out it was an HHR but as it happened it was a rental and he'd just picked it up so he didn't know anything about it.
We started checking them out this year, and pretty much knew that it would be our next car. My husband always said he'd love to have an old panel truck, well, I'd say this is close. We've had ours a month and we love it! Our other car is a Saturn station wagon, which gets 29 in the city and 36 or better on the highway, the HHR is getting around 23 & 24 in the city and we got about 34 on the highway so far, so that's not bad either. The Saturn sits low, and as a woman, I have to say that I am enjoying sitting up higher and being able to see farther ahead of me. I also love the space, though we had quite a bit of space in the station wagon as well, I think there is slightly more space in the HHR. We think the ride is comfortable and we are really loving it, and we really love the retro look! Like Courthousedeb said, they stand out in a crowd. In this day and age where it's hard to distinguish one car from another, you can really notice an HHR without a doubt.
Good luck, but like someone else here already said, I'd give her your car and buy an HHR for myself.

Five months after I bought the HHR, Chevy came out with the 0% financing. My wife decided she was going to trade her Cherokee. We went to the same salesman looking at another HHR because she really liked the way it drove. While there she spotted a Victory Red 4 dr Cobalt and liked the visability and the HUGE trunk. She bought it. Both are fine cars, and drive very similar. I think the Cobalt probably suits her better than an HHR would.
