What can you install into your Cool Car to make it even more awesome? You decide to pimp it out with a loud stereo, wings, lasers and cannons, a giant robot body, and cup holders. For some reason, when a character gets a new car, he will usually show a friend all the cool features the car has. When those features include cup holders, you can expect the friend to become more excited about those than any other feature the car has. Surprisingly few works ever ask the question of why you would allow open containers of liquid anywhere near the interior of a car the character just spent most of their annual salary on in the first place. This could be headed for Dead Horse Trope territory: cup holders have been standard equipment on most cars since at least the late 90s. Closely related in terms of sarcasm are floor mats. |

The Simpsons: When Homer Simpson designed a car for his half-brother Herb's car company, Homer insisted that it have a holder for his cup - not one of those wimpy regulation-size cup holders, but one big enough for a Super-Squishee. In the monorail episode after Homer gets hired to be the driver, he shows off the monorail's cockpit to his family. He points out the cup holder to them and says he can use it to store is beverages "or if you want: a cupcake!" One episode has Bart, after acquiring a fake driver's license, taking Milhouse, Nelson and Martin on a road trip. While checking out the rented car, Milhouse is over the moon to discover that it comes with a cupholder, and insists that they have to stop to get a cup to put in it. |

Discworld In The Last Hero, Leonard's labelled sketch of the Kite's cockpit includes cup-holders. In The Shepherd's Crown, when Mrs Proust sees Geoffrey's refurbished Flying Broomstick, she's impressed that it has "a little cup to hold your drink" ... although given the funny look the craftsman gives her, and his previous hushed conversation with Geoffrey about the adjustments needed for a gentleman's broom, it's quite possibly got a different purpose entirely. |

Taken to a (sort of) logical extreme in an episode of Archer in an episode where Archer is given a new spy car for his birthday. He geeks out over all the spy gadgets, but what really blows his mind is the fully stocked bar in the dashboard. His glee is somewhat tempered during his first drive when learns it's stocked with apple juice, but quickly notes that he can just have his butler refill the bottles with actual booze later. | |

Better Call Saul: After being hired at Davis & Main, Jimmy gets a company car with a cup holder that is unfortunately too small for his travel coffee mug, a metaphor for him not fitting in the firm. Four episodes later, as he's getting fed up with D&M, he solves the problem by tearing off the holder's cover with a tire iron. | |

In Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, Team Lightyear find themselves aboard an out of control alien (even by their standards) ship with no crew. When Buzz tries to stop the ship, all he can find at the control console were the Cup Holders. He was not amused. He was even less amused when said cup holders really were the primary control for the space ship, and the aliens in question had no concept of cup holders. | |
