Well he also has four grand children that at least two or three of them go places with them alot. He's getting a little old to be rolling out of a car. And believe it or not, I think he get's more looks from the HHR SS than any Vette. Vette's are a dime a dozen, the SS's are rare.

I believe I have had about two or three people at the most comment on my HHR SS. The Vette on the other hand is constantly checked out by everyone. They are nowhere near a dime a dozen. The HHR SS is still just an HHR. I enjoy driving the SS which is why I purchased it as my daily driver but given the choice, I will drive the Vette every time. There really is no comparison between the two. They are completely different vehicles.

At least, when you have a Vette, people say......"NICE VETTE".

When you have an HHR, they still say, "IS THAT A PT, or what kind of car is THAT?"

I have a feeling ur talking about hiway mileage. true, the Corvette will get 26 mpg on the freeway going 60 but hell who goes 60. the vette is rated 15-16 mpg in the city and I bet the HHR SS gets a lot better than that around town. Im hearing about 23.

That's a substantial difference in fuel economy right there

Summing up this thread so far...

Vettes are better, no HHRs are better. Mileage is vastly different, no it's almost the same.

Did I leave anything out?

I've been to 130+ (dont try this at home please) and the road, not the SS kept me from going faster.

You see more HRR SS's than Trabants too. Can you elaborate on your point? I don't think I get this thread...
