Don't miss them - they were useless anyway. Some have cupholders between the seats, my old Solstice did, Sky doesn't. Storage - well, this isn't the Sky's strong suit, although there is a glove box, map pockets on the front of both seats (handier than you would ever think.), and a reasonable-sized center console (doesn't lock). Cramped - sure, but I'm 6'3' and it's fine. There is nothing like dropping the top (which cannot really be done from inside … the vehicle, unfortunately, although, if you're nimble you can raise the top from inside the vehicle, you still have to get out to close the backward-hinged trunk) and hitting the road. The 5-speed (from the Chevy Colorado) works much better in the Turbo. Handling is just amazing - immediate and precise. However, my 2009 Saturn Sky Red Line (2.0 Turbo) is a monster!
We had a 2006 Pontiac Solstice with the 2.4 naturally aspirated engine - fun to drive, and we never felt it lacked go-power.
