Sports cupholders (with extra bolstering for fast cornering)
Adaptive cupholders (for those who like a choice of modes)

I also think the enhanced display should tell me which of my two cupholders has a cup in it, so I don't have to look down and check. Safety first people.

Anything I missed?

Maybe the cupholders should be styled differently for each line. Now there's a thought...

That pretty much sums up how seriously us Brits take the subject of cup holders.

For a while I thought you guys west of the pond were winding us up in this thread!

Until BMW can come up with a design that can hold a porcelain cup and saucer and a tray of cucumber sandwiches, we're simply not interested!
