Feeler: My 2008 HHR SS

I'm about ready to trade-in my HHR SS for a 2012 Mazda 5 in a month but figured I'd put a feeler out to see if anyone would be interested in buying it.

I bought this car brand new right after I graduated.

Its victory red with the matching red/black interior and performance drivers seat. I've taken care of it and always changed the oil with synthetic. Most importantly its a manual with factory LSD (no Brembos though). It also has a TWM short shifter with aluminum bushings.

The GM Stage 1 kit was installed by Andy (forgot his handle on here) at Burien Chevrolet. Clear Image Charge piping was installed at CIA.

It has almost 45,000 miles on it.

It has the factory 6-disk MP3 changer (no USB or BT, thats '09 and up), Pioneer premium system, side airbags, sunroof and roof rails - essentially every option available.

Will probably ask $17k for it.

So if anyone knows anyone that might be interested, please send them my way

Yep, have a baby, the trunk in the HHR is tiny and can barely fit the stroller. If I have the stroller in there, I can't put much else in the back, so getting whats best for my family.

Mini van was a birthday present for the wife.

I'm trying to find something under $5k to get after I sell her Exploder.

No idea, not mine, it belonged to one of the guys at the hanger, he had it out and let us take pictures with it.
