Two years ago I wound up with an HHR for a week when the Rental Car counter didn't have any of the generic Malibus available while on vacation. I enjoyed its small size, ease of entry for four people, and fuel frugality when doing city driving in north Florida and the Raleigh NC area, but I would not buy one to replace my 9-5.
It is basically a panel truck version of a Chevy Cobalt, and should be compared to other vehicles in that class. It is an economical city car/grocery getter with a funky exterior (that some do not like), but definitely not a luxurious, performance oriented, road car.
