Awesome new finding: Cupholder

I just found out after having put on an enjoyable 20K miles on my C4S over XXX number of days, there are two cupholders, not just one.

R u serious? LOL.

It's like the S2000 - people would discover the "hidden" upper compartment between the seats after a year + of ownership.

it's still cracking me up and the moment of joy i felt when i saw the two holders... was pure magic.

i actually can't even take credit for finding it... i had my car detailed and they give you a bottle of water post-wash as part of the good service.... and i had a cup of coffee in the holder already and the dude had put the water bottle in the second holder.


WAHAHAHHAHHHHAHAHHAHAHAHA it was the coolest thing

WAAHAHAH now i can't ever let 'em see two.

If it's the same one as is on the TT...its on the dash right under your center AC vent with a little icon that looks like a couple drink glasses. You push in on it and it pops out, then you pull it to the right, and it extends outward exposing the second holder next to the first.
