I've found I've had to downshift into a Starbucks TALL Americano instead of my usual GRANDE size. The MINI cupholders are snug lil' suckers! Just yesterday I watched as my wife wrestled her 12 oz Diet Pepsi can out...and mangled the aluminum in the process.

Sorta reminds me of one of those joke toys where you put your fingers in each end of the tube only to find you can't pull them out

Still havin' a blast! And here comes the weekend!

 

They loosen up with use. like other things in life...

 

You didn't read about the 07 MINI's new over-caffination prevention feature?

 

duh!!
they of course were designed that way...so your drink doesnt fall out when hitting the hairpins at 60+ !!! lol

 

They are designed that small so you don't bring drinks in your car... you should be motoring, not sipping!

 

Zis iss de feelink off da jermann ingineers who cannot unterstant our need for 44 oz giant big gulps. Zay tink we are a little "unfocused" when we drife.

Try turning ze drink as yew remofe it. Not poifect, bot it helpz.

 

I took me weeks to find a travel mug that would fit in there. Luckily I found one at Target that was on clearance for $2.49
