The Pontiac Solstice GXP is not comfortable. Even for a roadster, the driver sits too low, there's too much lumbar support in the backrest and not enough lateral support in the side bolsters, the steering wheel rim can bruise your palms, and the gauges and controls seem to be about six inches too high and aimed at the driver's forehead. Making matters worse, the side sills are too high to serve as an armrest, forcing the use of those molded into the door panels. The center tunnel has a padded cover, but the gearshift boot cover falls readily to hand rather than the lever.
