I Need Cup Holders!!!
Ok, I thought I could deal without a cup holder but I am terrified to drink anything in the car. I can't find a decent looking accessory cup holder either. Has anybody found anything that works all right and keeps the suave interior?

A lot of us use the "wedgie" auto cup holder. It wedges inbetween the seat and the console for a snug fit. We find them in Wal-Mart for about $3-4 apiece.
Whenever I am traveling I always check the Walmarts and pick them up whenever I can. I have used them to carry X-large coffee and have yet to spill a drop. No installation, holes, etc. Remove it whenever you want.

I never thought to sue but once I got coffee from Dunkin Donuts in my travel mug. They did not put the lid on tight and it popped off as I was taking a sip. 2nd degree burns down my chin and neck, anywhere my shirt touched my belly, and especially under my seat belt where it crossed my chest. Talk about pain!!! Looking back on it I could have sued for the coffee being too hot but for my own good or not I am not that kind of person. Back to the cup holders, I used to use the kind that clip into the window trough and hang over the inside of the sill. I never had a problem with them in my other cars but have not used anything in the SVX yet except for the old "nature's wedgie" cup holder (my lap).

Walmart is strange. At Lafayette we found a whole bunch. I bought 4 of them and others bought some as well. We depleted their inventory rather quickly.
Traavelling across counry last summer I stopped frequently at Walmart; some had 2, some had none. Its a hit or miss thimg. I tried searching on the web but they don't exist there. Type in "Auto cup holders", "beverage holders", or the like. Whatever you do dont type "wedgie" as a search term! I'll try to find and bring as many of the wedgie cup holders as I possibly can to Reading. maybe other members can help as well

Cup holders
What you dare to drink in your SVX? If it was a Ferrarri would you be saying the same thing?
Obviously the designers didn't want anyone drinking in their master piece so the neglected a suitable place to store drinks. That's why the XT and Brat are both in the same class as the SVX. They don't have cupholders either.
