HHR what the heck?!!!
« on: October 01, 2005 - 11:30:43 PM »
Do you guys know about this car? My wife and I went to the airport yesterday and these little clones were buzzing around the rental centers.
I thought, that must be the new PT....NO it has a chebbi tie on it

It looks like a Durango and a Cruizer had a baby but it was adopted by GM...

Well?

Look at they're track record.

They cant think of anything for themselves.

At least it isnt as offensive as a pontiac Aztec!

That's an excellent analogy. It's even a 4 cylinder, with fwd.

I would have thought with the success of the aztec that the guy who designed that would have gotten canned but apperently not, he lives to make more ugly cars!!!

(insert emoticon of a smilely throwing up.)  I think that pretty much sums up the design of the HHR.
1973 Dodge Challenger......................The ongoing project. (00/----\00)
1991 Dodge Stealth R/T Twin-Turbo....The sunny day cruiser (RTBoost)
1990 Toyota Celica GT Liftback...........The new daily & winter driver.
All-American Muscle: 'Cudas and Challengers...Still the Elite and always will be.

They look better in person.  However, they are still hideous.

Good God, man, that is an ugly car.  That Scion cube thingie is about a zillion times cooler than this bulbous chebbie wartwagon.  I'm sure they were thinking "retro, with muscular lines" but what they got was something that looks like a HappyMeal toy, and NOT in a good way.

Yuck.  Park it right next to the Aztek in the pantheon of ugly cars.  Aztek is still number one in my book, though.  Unbeatably ugly!

Right!!!!
The retro look is cool but these guys (GM and DC) are going too far back in time. That's why Ford got it right. Make a retro looking car from the late sixties and early seventies instead of 1939.

i like the PT but, i agree step up and make a retro lookin cuda or chally and then DC would really have somthing, but then on the other hand they would just put a good name on a turd 4 door and try to make somthing of it. i think the charger is somwhat of a success but the people i am seeing driving them are yuppie luxury sport car freaks!!!!!! no offence to anyone here that likes them or owns one but that is just the way i feel about them, DC and the Charger.  :-(
