You need more than 3 in a 2 seater car?

I honestly never understood why there was even one in the dash. It's a two seater with two cup holders. My math tells me that you should be fine. The third cup holder should make you feel like you're in a luxury car.

the 2 in the center console are useless on a MT unless you like knocking over your drink with your elbow

My elbow is raised above the drinks I keep in there when I shift. Maybe I sit higher than most people.

Coming from a MX-5 I already feel like I'm in a luxury car. But my two in the center are missing. I only have the one in dash. My math says that one for a two seater car isn't enough for two people....

Ah, now I understand the situation. There is a removable dual cup holder that will fit in the center console box. Why someone would take it is beyond me. I'm sure the dealer will sell you one for $1,000 + installation.

I agree, it is kind of useless. Cup holders in the trunk would be more useful. LOL. This is probably why the previous owner removed it.

Try this one. It will probably add a little weight to your car, but it should work.

OMG that's perfect, but I don't think that she would fit in my center console. I wonder if she comes in the kids meal size??

You should post in the want forum I'm sure someone has an extra one if not tell your dealer the car is incomplete. They should take care of it for you.
