Consider the Cup Holder

A fun read!
FWIW, my car has 3 cupholders: two behind the parking brake (positioned one after the other, between the 2 front seats). They are the shallow kind with 4 rubber flaps to hold the bottle/cup in place. And then it has a very hi-tech one that pops out of the middle console (closer to the passenger side); the size of the opening can be selected (plastic, spring-operated flaps).
But I rarely use a cupholder; occasionally, on a long drive, you might find a small waterbottle in one of the middle holders (a bottle there doesn't bother me; it isn't in sight, but within reach when I pause).

Hmmm. 2 in front, 2 in middle seat, 3 in back - 7 total.
Incidentally, there's still a drive-up A&W restaurant about 30 miles from here. No roller skates on the waitpeople, but they do have the window trays like in the '50s.

But the interior looks all plasticky, very japanese, not at all mercedes-like. Then again, I don't know shit about cars. Ask guchi, if that's a mercedes, he'll tell you the model, hp, and the owner's phone number.

Americans live in our cars sometimes. Coffee, or big sodas(another American thing) are standard driving fare, and we demand easy access to them.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw.

AZ [/B]thought guchi would know about BMWs..
anyway i dont think cup-holders for drivers is a good thing...unless they come up with a straw/pipe to the cup.. it is more worse than using a handphone..Life is a bed of roses. Everyone else sees the roses, you are the one being gored by the thorns.
