I do not care for the cup holders. The only thing our Durango was good at (besides consuming gas) was holding drinks. How in the world an I suppose to hold 2 drinks in that little area below the armrest???? Thats the only thing. Our local gas station has put out an APB/ missing person alert on us.

Are you sure about that? My sunvisors slide about 4-6 inches or so. When you use them on the side windows they just pull rearward on thier shaft.

we've got a little over 1000 miles on our black auto SS, a lot for the 1st week!! only thing that was irritating was a rattle in the rear somewhere.....traced it to be the license plate surround that the dealer put on.
No issues with headroom with the sunroof and i'm 6'2''. its all in your seating position, more upright and you'll have hair rubbing headliner.
We're loving the mileage....27 to 33. Wife is very happy with her new toy, she even lets me drive it sometimes too!
Today we passed a red HHR Panel , it was pretty cool, had some graphics on the side for a towing co., but it also has white racing stripes on hood roof and rear, not so cool.

i never knew that till right now.
Also the visors to me are pointless when i put them down it blocks my whole view except for about 10%.

While mine has had a couple of minor rattles in it's first 2400 miles, they were easily traced down. My biggest complaint is the Bosch "nanny" ECU that prevents modification. I'm used to turbo cars that boost more in cold air, not less
While I know GM did it to promote durability, that's not why I bought it
Just waiting for someone to crack the code for the HHR.
Complaint #2: Built in turbo lag with the electronic wastegate. This tiny compressor should spool instantly but GM decided to draw it out for "emissions" (so the rumor is anyways). While there is already a mod to remove most of the lag, the Solstice/Sky guys have had drivability quirks from doing it.
Complaint # 3: I wish it was built off the 2.4 Ecotec instead of the 2.0.
Complaint # 4: Wish it had a 6th gear, thing screams at interstate speeds (Atlanta interstate speeds that is
)
