PT vs. HHR in motor trend

[EJIII]

Chevy has been displaying an HHR at most of the NASCAR races this year and it seems to me a nice compliment to our PTs. I like it, especially the hot rodding potential. It looks like it will make a more natural looking sedan delivery-type vehicle than the PT has. Overall though, the HHR just reinforces how much I like my Cruiser!

Welp, my mom and I took a test drive in a top model HHR today, it was very nice. Really quiet on the inside, nice sound system, i luv the onstar feature with the xm, and it seemed more roomy above the head. However it isnt nearly as fun to drive as the PT cruiser GT. In sence of power, it doesnt even compare to the GT, and the handling seems worse. Ummmmmmmmmmm, yeah i guess thats about it. any questions about it you could ask me, and I will try my best to answer! Thanx!

Well I just seen a 2006 PT up close and I must say that I do not like what they have done to it. If I was looking for a PT right now...It would not be a 2005 at all. I realize that they had to make some changes to it but the changes they made dont look good to me...especially the interior....

They get off topic and away they go.

Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.

But c'mon, they're not even close.

Give it 1 year and they will pop out with the Cobalt SS 210 HP Supercharged Ecotech in the hhr.Just like the Cruiser and SRT-4, the lancer and Evo...Chevy will test the waters then release the performance model as press from the release dies down. The Saturns (red line) are a little quick, and the cobalt SS's/cavaliers with the Eco and a little boost are fast.
