A cup smoothie is a add on cup holder that fits on the end of the middle front seatback (arm wrest) when it is folded down. It is especially nice for the guys with 5 speeds who don't want to reach all the way to the floor to pick up their coffee. It is very convenient and works well. However, it is just a piece of molded plastic. The only place I have seen them available is from Geno's Garage. My wife got me one for Christmas and I really like it. I guess i should add it to my description.

so how many boost psi, RW ft# and RW HP did the cup holder add?? Mileage affected? How'bout top speed? LOL--did'ja hafta gota synthetic oil to make it work right? How big a cup will it hold, and do you now need helper springs in the back?? :<)> this should make HVAC lose contact with his chair --rich

He. . hehe
Actually my contact coefficient has improved considerably. The brand new drag race clutch was installed in project "Warp Drive" and so far the reviews have been favorable. Good clutch traction = less rear wheel traction. I can second that motion, and 3rd for sure and possibly 4th too. I am clutching tightly now. #ad

I heard that DC was keeping track of those who installed aftermarket cupholders so they could weasel out of injector pump and brake pull warranty claims! They claim that because your beverage of choice is within easy reach, you will drive faster working the fuel pump harder and the brakes when you have to stop.

Those bloody *******s will stop at nothing to ruin our fun. The smoothie cupholder is a life saver for us manual equipped Rammers.

Cup smoothie is definitely worth getting if you drive a 5 speed.

DC is now telling dealers to look for cup smoothies and report the VIN number to deny future driveline warranty claims #ad
