When driving in a convertible in the hot summer, you need to have water with you, and you need somewhere to put it.
I had a E90 335i and the cup holders were horrible. Cups never stayed in place unless you're driving like a grandma through turns.
When I had my E90, I had to choose the right cup until it worked ... but that Z4 cup holder location is really bad ... how you gonna reach out to your cup ... coffee will be spilled everywhere
