Definitely glad I didn't get the RPD or the Brembos. Wish it was AA5 though. Thanks for the pix!

Angry Only one thing wrong,

The window sticker on the SS must be wrong. This vehicle has an RPD to go with the 5-speed? How come all the delays when we order this combo. This vehicle is equipped with the 5-speed. That could be my HHR if it was Aqua Blue with ebony/black interior. Shame it also has the Sunstroke roof. I hope when my dealer gives me my new build week it is still in the month of October. Man, does that RPD look ugly/cheap/fake. I wonder if it is even a working model or just there for show.

It looked like the real deal--and it was kinda weird not having the Turbo Boost Gauge on the A Pillar... Couldn't operate it, however--power disconnected at the car show... the "build date" on the VIN Sticker, if I remember correctly, was 09/08... (slight chance it was 06/08 'cause I looked at so many and am easily confused!--but I do think it was Sept)...

And I agree that it's "appearance" was not of the utmost quality level (rubber mat not laying flat at base, etc.).. But I bet it is REALLY COOL when operating!

I wonder why the AA5 option costs more, not less. The rear window opening is, I am assuming, stamped into the sheet metal. If you eliminate that step, you use less energy and create less metallic waste, and there is no cost for the window glass, gaskets, and what-have-you.
What am I missing?
