Am I the only supra owner who...

[annoyingrob]

I use them to hide switches in

shhhhhh



I just fill the center console full of garbage, so when I have a drink, I stuff all the garbage around it to hold it . Or if I have my giant slurpee cup, I just seatbelt it into the passenger seat/




My MKII friend once told me: "You wannna hear a joke? Cupholders."

 

[jugodegolf]

Get a GF, and make her hold your stuff.

Gets my vote for best mod on mk3.:biglaugh:

I use my fav mug for coffee no cupholder needed as it is pretty big.
Use the ol' six flags bottle for drinks. I've spilled coffee on seats before though:3d_frown:

Here's the same cupholder as in my Saab. Someone needs to mod one of these into the dash. Best discreet cupholder IMO.

CooL! Maybe I'll install one of these into my ashtray that never gets used. It looks quite thin, is it strong enough? I like the way it moves out of the way of the stereo area.

My cupholders work just fine, I don't see how so many of you have such problems with yours. The only thing mine can't hold are the 40oz slurpees.

I read right over the word average.

Sorry, I was drunk and silly.

the fact that guys sit w/ their legs open further supports the claim that drinks belong in your crotch, not precariously perched behind your elbow waiting for blunt trauma after a shift or to have a hole poked in the bottom by something in your console consequently turning it into a sugary bath for your documents. also, the coin holder is a TEMPORARY cup holder at best. i mean, how much lateral support and a 1" deep, square, hole provide for a 3" round, top-heavy, ROUND PEG? the coin holder is ok for straight lines or parking lot speeds only.

the crotch holder is perfect. forward movement is limited by the slope of the seat bottom, rearward movement is eliminated by your Junk-al area, lateral movement is eliminated by your legs... what the problem is? the fact that you have a crush-able item waiting to punish you with hot or cold crotch treatment is further reason for dainty pedal operation. the byproduct of that is much more gentle driving too. its a two-fold benefit.

the supra is a GT car, hence the weight, amenties and FOUR goddamn seats and REAL cup holders. my RX7 was a Sports car, hence its lack of power accessories, 2680lbs and TWO seats and divots in my glove box lid for "cup holders". the FC cup holders are a joke, literally. with a passenger, the glove box cover does NOT fold down due to the quantum physics; their Knees and your glove box lid cannot occupy the same space! then, when you do get it down into position, its flimsy. itd barely hold a 12oz can of soda, let alone a 24oz medium fast-food cup, or a large 32oz if you prefer w/o the lid flexing on the hinges. then, once you manage to stabilize your drinks in the divots on the lid that is slanted down at 15*, they will fall over if you so much as THINK about turning your steering wheel.

appreciate what cup holders your car has... it could be worse.

Same exact deal on the second gen Supra, minus the sports car title.
