I used to do the same in my Pantera every morning on my way to work (when I drove it daily), except I'd stick my 7-11 coffee cup between the console and 

the passenger seat. Worked great! Never a spill.

On my driving odyssey from Iowa to the Fun Ralley and back last spring I figured out that a supersized soft drink cup 
with a plastic lid and straw can be squeezed between the driver seat and console so that it won't move when driving but
is readily available when needed.  No mess no fuss.

Subject: [DeTomaso] Cup holders - Pantera content In the December issue of "Car and Driver" magazine, there are several reviews of 
cars, and the issue of cupholders comes up more often than one would think.  In 
reviewing the $66,000 Porsche Boxster, the comment is made:  "Only the cup 
holders disappoint."  So, it's OK to talk about them in regards to Panteras.  
Being that some of your cars are driven on the road, how do you handle the "Yes, 
there are no cup holders in a Pantera" problem?  I've tried the squeeze the 
container between my legs technique.  I've done the "screw-top" type of plastic 
bottle.  I've even done the, "Honey, can you hold this for me?" routine.  
Thanks, Bill
