Despite the HHR being ugly (my opinion) I am already seeing a lot of them on the road.
GM seems to have just released a plethora of uninspiring cars.
Buick LaCrosse
SSR
HHR
GTO
Pontiac G6
Pontiac Grand Prix
Their new mini-van (Chevrolet, Pontiac, Saturn)
Cobalt
Aveo
Malibu
Impala (I thought the last model was plain and ugly)
Monte Carlo
Do any of you find these cars appealing? Do you HAVE to have one in the garage? Not me.
The GTO is great under the hood, but so plain otherwise.
And where's the hybrid technology? Should be asking Chrysler the same thing. Can you imagine how well a hybrid Cruiser would sell?
I thought Bob Lutz would save them, but GM is drowning.......again.
It's a matter of time before GM is no more.

i have to disagree on some of that, The new Impalas and Monte carlos are coming with an LTZ option with a superchargered engine and the SS is getting a V8, The Grand Prix also comes with a Superchargged option or a V8 in the GXP model along with the Bonneville GXP. The 05 and 06 GTOs are getitng better styling wise. The G6 will have aocnvertable with a 6 speed 240hp ( i belive might be off by a couple) engine in the GTP model. And you can forget that they have also developed the DOD system for their V8's which is almost like hybrid power, just not as sissy sounding. I'll give ya the aveo, mini vans, lacrosse and the base G6 as missing the boat. But i think GM is making strides. As for the HHR Who knows i perosnally dont mind it but i wouldn't buy one. and not to sound like i am bashing chrysler i was just extending some of the knowledge that i know to add another persepctive to you statement
