^^Damn thats what I was thinking. Why would anyone buy that ugly *** HHR, when they can have the same motor in an awsome looking SS Cobalt? Oh well to each his own I guess.

with a tune those Turbo Ecotecs hit 21lbs of boost on the high side which is nuts for a stock 4 cyl

^It would be a good point except that neither Mustangs or Fbodies were being compared 
Also I'd choose a nice Mach 1 just as fast as any fbody. They are just badass rides

Trap really doesn't mean squat when we're talking street on factory rubber. You'd be hard pressed to cut a 1.9-2.0 60 ft. in stock form. Not that difficult with an L98 3rd Gen, especially the speed density cars.

its still a good point tardre i was just saying he likes cobalts better then HHR's cool, i like Fbodies better than Mustangs, although his does look nice.
I appreciate the compliments thanx. I am partial to Fords but I have owned an F-body and a Vette.

Thanks man, not since the S/C or the mods in my sig. Went 13.4 NA with the stock 3.55's and a cat back. The track has been rebuilt down here and has been closed since March. Should open shortly, I will be there.

I got it because I have a family and wanted something that was roomy, cheap, Fast and fun to drive. I wanted a Trail Blazer but was bad on gas and cost a lot more. I can get over 31 mph so far best. The HHR SS looks much better than the regular HHR. To each their own. The Cobalt SS and 4 Door isn't as roomy but it is a awesome car but again wasn't practical for me.

not even gunna lie i really like the HHR SS's those Turbo charged Ecotec motors are insane. with just HPT tuners you can gain 50wheel horse and like 60 wheel torque, my buddy at work has a old supercharged cobalt and he is about to trade it in for a newer Turbo'd one. with just a turbo upgrade and tune those cars can push 360 wheel horse.
