Amen to that, us Southerners don't interface well with snow, and having lived in Buffalo and Erie....I had my fill of that stuff for two years.

Sweet. I may have missed an earlier description, is it a manual or automatic? Any special equipment or packages? Roll back the top and fun, fun, fun. Enjoy

Pretty much every thing you can get on the 500C Popular with the additions of a 5-speed transmission, Bose Premium Audio system, Sirius/XM radio, and the extra cost red top with matching red and white seats.

Michelle is super happy with it, and super bummed that it won't stop raining so she can take it out and zip around with the top down, I keep telling her that spring is on the way.

I finally picked up my 2011 crystal red HHR at the dealer yesterday after waiting weeks for it to be trucked in. Today while waiting for the Super Bowl to start, I plan to browse the board on things like best paint sealers/waxes, upgrades, accessories, etc.

Look forward to talking with you all soon.

Steve

The Italians - the world's leaders in the field of design. The world's best models of cars - the result of Italian studio work. American cars, including.
I mentioned Mario Boano, who worked in the postwar years in the firm Ghia (Turin, Italy). At this time, even the most prestigious Ford models was developed Ghia and Mario Boano. Boano's ideas came to the fertile soil of the Chrysler's design. Two years later, they build The Based Concept "Dart", which became the standard for American-style. immediately behind him - bestseller "Chrysler 300-C" an elegant two-door "hardtop coupe" of Italian style.
Today, Fiat has a 53.5% stake in Chrysler.
Who is the chief designer of the Chrysler? Lorenzo Ramachiotti!
Who is the chief of concern "Chrisler - Fiat"? Sergio Marchionne!
Man! You see the Italian design in the street every day, but you think - is an American design!
Believe me, what you see - great! It is much better than that - what I see on Russian streets. You want to know what I see? I can see herds of Chevrolet with Korean design of 90-ies.
Yes Fiat bought off Chrysler's debt and now has a large influence on the cars. You can see the Italian influence in things like the new Chargers and the Dart that will be coming out.

Not so much the Charger except for interior styling, the upcoming 2013 Dart on the other hand is an Italian car based on the current Alfa Romeo Giulietta. It has been "Americanized" with Dodge styling cues and a longer wheelbase, but underneath it all, its as Italian as the Mona Lisa.

FYI, Alfa and Lancia are divisions of Fiat which also has a controlling interest in Ferrari.

Back to OT....Left all three HHR's parked today, wet and rainy in the morning, Super Bowl get together tonight at the condo. Spent so much time talking to folks and cooking I only saw the last minute of the game, congrats to the Giants fans here, better luck next year to the Patriots fans.
