Nissan doesn't like Cupholders
When you look at the Z32,350z,180sx,Silvia's, and Skylines only the S15 came with oem cupholders which were located imo in the perfect place. 350z had a cool location for a cup holder if your sitting in the passenger seat but it's not ideal for the driver. Seems odd to me considering all these cars were manufactured from 89 to the early 2000s yet only one car had cup holders.... Dear Nissan what's up with that?

Sports cars don't need cupholders.
I would guess it was nissan apologists on the design teams, trying to build sports cars as nissan tried to castrate them every step of the way. So, they said fuck cupholders. Of course, it didn't work, because with the rest of the cars castrated, not having cupholders doesn't make our cars more serious, just more frustrating. |

this is something that only americans would complain about
at least its not like the vw cup holders that look like they are a great place to stow your piping hot coffee until you accelerate and it launches it directly into you lap like a friggin sling shot. |

No food or drinks allowed in my ride. Use a bottle. Then you need no holder. Pretty simple really. Open containers are just waiting to be spilled. Cup holders are for luxury. Buy a caddy. They usually just get filled with pennies anyways lol.

Only poor people should be worried. Cloth stains. Leather can be wiped off with the quickness.

you forgot about the z32!
i really wish i had a place to puy my coffee (or large slurpee on these hot days.) ive seen this insert on yaj which would be too small for many american sized drinks/cups/etc but could also easily be made (and made bigger) instead of importing. ive also seen a 2 cup holder that inserts where the Z's ashtray is... both of these are horrible locations imo because they get in way of shifting. when i remember ill look for a universal one that i can install somewhere near the center console. one that is sturdy yet not very obtrusive or requiring me to drill into the dash/etc. as for 'only americans complaining about...' that might be true. but part of the reason is... japan is small as fuck compared to the states (or A state.) they dont have many places to drive, as well. you know how americans love their road trips. (plus japans efficient public/mass transit systems, etc) plus owning a car, driving, fuel, etc is so much more costly over there.

Complaining about cup holders. . . you mean you actually allow drinks in your car? 0_o
Sorry, but the interior in my car is mint for it being 16 years old and having 204k miles. |
