When I first read your post I thought it said 140oz and was like, WTF. That capital 'O' threw me.

I'd say the coupe manual are worse..you got to shift all awkward to prevent your elbows from hitting the cup. I normally only fit one drink, and I close the lid against it to "try" and prevent it from tipping. Plus I don't actually drink it until I get home as well.

Haven't had a problem with the cup holder yet, generally I would get the grande size at starbucks.

I think our cups are alot smaller in Canada then in America though

I couldn't care less about cup holders, as I have never ate or drank in any car, but I guess I'm different than most of you.

Different isn't the first word that comes to mind.

Best suggestion is probably get a thermos or something of that sort. If you can't, I suggest putting the back armrest down and putting it in those cup holders, definitely less comfortable if you want a sip, but definitely gives you more space and whatnot, I did this in the summer when my GF & I decided to get large Iced Coffees.

I always folded up a napkin and shoved it in the hole and waited to get to work before drinking it.

Hey one of my idiot friends spilled a drink, had run into a store.
Try getting orange gatorade off of a stone interior.
No no one including myself brings Any food/drink near my car.
Lesson learned, the cupholders were made for cans or a 20 oz soda.
Anything over a medium coffers will spill, even if you just stop short.

I ABSOULUTELY HATE THE CUP HOLDERS IN THIS CAR. My 2006 maxima had much better cup holders. The cup holders in the g can hold only 1 drink and though I normally drink in my car, i still need space to get the drinks home and the g just does not provide that. But the sexiness of the G makes up for that.

Reviving an old post. Do two of these fit side by side? I just purchased the Contigo West Loop and two of them together do not fit. Trying to find two travel mugs that work side by side.

TIA.
