Foxnews.com has an article/vid/pics on the 2008 Lotus Elise SC. It's worth looking at.

They took a lot of heat for not having a cup holder on earlier models. So they engineered a Lotus cup holder sort of tounge-in-cheek, in-your-face, light weight, etc. You know: Lotus-y.

It makes so much sence to not have cup holders. Cups leeds to drinks, drink leed to rest-stops rest stops mean,...Less driving.

At least it looks too small to contain your Super-mega-jumbo size American soft drink cups, or 2 gallons of latte from Starbucks. It's designed for lightweight British drinks. :grin:
