Anyone else find it annoying to shift with a cup in the holder?

They at least to 94 - 00, you will literally move to, but I agree, although they are still the way I do not care so much honesty.

I wish my cupholder door was clear because I love the ambient lighting in there.

Wow I thought I was the only one who thought that the cup holder was a pain in the a$$. I have tossed plenty of bottles of water into the front or back seat in frustration because I felt like Stretch Armstrong trying to shift. I LOVE!!!! I repeat LOVE my car, but that cup holder placement is like Kanye West interrupting me in the middle of sex. Lol

I use the cup holders and not the shifter! Haha... I have a long way to work so I need a drink to keep me awake. Sure I wouldn't have a cup during a track experience, but it isn't that bad. I thought the most annoying part was the liner that sticks to the bottom of the cup when I pick it up! Passengers that get scared under hard acceleration are just as annoying as the cupholder!!

I hate the cup holder. I try to avoid using it for drinks.

A retractable dash cup holder like on my girlfriend's CLK would be nice.

I took the rubber liner out of my cup-holder. Crappy design. I like to get coffee from CircleK almost every morning, so in a manual transmission the cup-holder problem is annoying. I am also disappointed in the spill switch next to the brake pedal. I can hardly make it home without spilling coffee.

I agree. after owning my mustang for about 1.5 months I have found there are few things I don't really like, however, it is nothing that would stop me loving my car. the things I don't really like are:

-the cupholders (I use them rarely and if so, only the rear one)
-the fact that there is not enough storage space for CD's and other stuff
-how sync does not understand my swiss accent when I try to call my friends :P

You still use CD's?

I feel ya on the Sync not recognizing a Swiss accent... I know someone from Michigan who has a problem with it... And I also know someone from South Carolina who also has a problem with it...

The only drinks i ever let into my car are bottles so I just make sure they are tightly sealed and put them in the back seat.
