Default Anybody know where to get cupholders for the A8 that'll match my black interior?

As you all know, the cup holder in the car is way too small. I've seen some leather covered ones for a BMW that attach to the side of the center console. Any thoughts on what to buy and where? Thanks.

Default What always cracks me up is that the official Audi coffee mug doesn't fit in Audi's flagship.

Default I have two of these mugs. They fit in the front console location where the

lid for NAV access flips up; and in the rear console space after lid is flipped up. (2001 A8L) I don't think that the other model mug will fit. The one in your picture has a smaller diameter at the bottom than at the top, allowing it to fit.

Default That style cup is the *only* cup that will stay in a Boxster cupholder.

You can put one in my A8 cupholder, but it's a bit of a force fit.

Oh, and the official Porsche cup *does not* stay in the Boxster cupholder. I returned it to the dealer for a refund.

The Germans just don't get drinking coffee while driving.
