Not all C6s had 2. The "dry"-sump models only had the driver's side one IIRC. The passenger side was taken by the battery. I wouldn't be surprised if its the same for the C7.

Based on pics in another thread, the cubby is on the driver side and the battery is on the passenger side.

From all that I have seen and read it is 1 cubby and it is on the Driver's side.

The battery is on in the passenger side cubby on all models.

This is a great question, I didn't realize the C6s lost the center giant cubbie... did the floor get lower? What happened to that space, it was perfect for a custom sub

GM says the space was used for a more direct routing on the C6 exhaust system, producing slightly more power. I'm guessing an additional 1 hp.

We really liked that C5 center cubby, which was originally supposed to hold a small temporary spare which got ditched when they decided to make runflats standard.

I thought the cubby is where the roof section is stowed!

The C5 rear center storage area was where the optional CD changer was mounted.
