Hundreds, eh? You might need to be careful that your 'cupholder' doesn't get crudded up and fall off!

Ugly as it is, I find mine to be quite useful and enjoy it very much as well. They still are pretty ugly though, at least from a male perspective.

(oh, are we talking about the cup holder????)

Lots of them...

There are those who say "No cup holders" and those that say, "just not THAT cup holder."

If you want "No cup holders" you're in the wrong vehicle--in what is (for all intents and purposes) a 2 seater, there are SIX, count-em, SIX places for beverages (1 between the seats, 2 below the toggles, two in the glove box, and "THE" Cup Holder on the down-tube). That's 3 drinks per occupant before ever needing to re-stock!

Methinks your trips are too short.

If you put people in the back seat, you can accomodate 12oz and 20oz drinks in the side cubbies in the back seat area.

And, the glove box is climate controlled to keep drinks cold.

Did you think it was a Ferrari?
