Picture Request
Please post a picture of the cupholder, showing its location. Have a cup in it to make it obvious to dummies like me.
This should obviously be a low priority, long after sequences showing proper entry and exit technique, with and without a skirt.
I'm just curious.
Enjoy that beautiful car!

Cup holder? We don't need no stinkin' cup holder!
(There is none, thank goodness.)
Martin, can I use your story as an illustration on why color management is important?

Once Upon a Time there was a Retractable Cup Holder

Did they delete it?

guessing far right like Elise.
If correct do I win a ride in your car?
Ok I found it! Doug is right

It's hidden under the center arch near the shifter. You have to slide it out to the side for use.
Actually there is and we have covered it in these pages.
Here's a shot it took of it:

It flips out so you never see it in pictures.
Also I recently saw a picture of the center console that had something that looked "holderish". Like a little (red) platform. The shot was really dark so it was hard to tell exactly what it was.
We really struggled as to where to put a cupholder in the Roadster's small interior. Marc was adamant that we had at least one - he often stops at Peets for coffee on the way to work: where would you put a cup of hot coffee when you are driving alone, he asked.
My old Z3 has no cupholder and it sucks. I have spilled more coffee in that car... I finally figured out that I could remove the silly cassette tape holder thingy in the console, and a cup of coffee will kind of wedge into the resulting hole.
The Roadster's cupholder is useful when you are driving alone. When you have a passenger, it is in the way. But then again, you can ask your passenger to hold your coffee if need be.

Speaking of Marc, is he also waiting for his Roadster?
I'd guess he is but I can't remember any mention of that anywhere?

Thanks Malcom! Could not find this.
Don't think the tray is red from lighting though. The highlites would be colored too. I think it's just red to match the accents like the gearshift knob.
Looks like there are two 12V accessory plugs above the "tray" front and back (cap off) and something else like a button or knob above 12V socket on the front.
If you place an unrestrained cup of fluid on that tray it would not last long and it would be hard to use the sockets. Besides you can see the "hidden" cup holder in the console closer to the seat.
So is it a place for a cell phone, ipod, coins, a writing pad (for writing down the #s of those chicks that Martin says you will get) or is it.
Sigh,
I have too much time on my hands...

Marc didn't order a Roadster - he's just not a 2-seater convertible kind of guy. Especially so now that he has 3 kids!
Marc is much more a Whitestar customer. Perhaps when that car comes out it will still appeal to him.
But Marc was the first person after Carolyn and me to drive mine. And judging by his grin, I think he kind of liked it :smile:
:biggrin:Anyone care to guess who the next driver will be?
