I am told the 2.4 engine is only available with the 4 speed auto trans. That does not work for me. We need to make GM understand that the customer should decide what combinations should be offered. Responding with support to the posting will help GM understand that.
Post now!
Thanks, John

Which book was he showing you?
Here is a scan of the 2008 HHR's buyer guides page.........
Note that the 5 speed is standard on the 2LT. As well as the 2.4 being standard on the 2LT.
No mention of the combo being not available.

It was nice years ago when about all were manuals when I started driving. I read someplace that people that drive manuals (or can) are better drivers because it requires more concentration to use the clutch and gas and steer. We just do it without thinking and drivers of automatics just aim and go. Maybe the roads would be safer to drive on if we did away with automatics (they are nice in city traffic, I have to admit).
