Moment of discovery and surprise! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #91956 20 posts Started by englishdas
OMFG, I just got a couple of coffee's to go, was balancing them on my knee, and my wife went, 'what are you DOING??' and lo-and-behold... Cup-Holders in the Celica! I never frikkin knew!!!

I am amazed, as you can tell.
hahah, I only discovered cup holders after about 1 week of having the car

but anyway.. if you ever have a drink in there, good luck changing gears tongue.gif

It doesn't become an adventure until you are using both cup holders with two 32oz drinks.

My wife would always question why I had an attitude when she asked me to pick something up on the way home for us, so one day I did that to her.

She never asked that question again, and I spent Saturday cleaning the sticky off the center console and drying my shift boot moat.
Taco Bell cups are the worst... Two of those and you're crane style shifting like a boss.

Try shifting gears with two Burger King 40oz soda cups... Man shifting was never harder than that. Lol. I just skipped my 3rd gear.

Very funny! Its amazing how I never discovered it before! I managed not to discover it even with the words 'cup holder!'

ridiculous.

The wonders of Toyota... I'll try to find a big gulp maker in the UK!
It's not much better with an auto. It's defiantly a two person job.

If that's what was meant then yes... I do know the secret haha.
There is also some kind of voodoo magic that keeps the doors from locking if your keys are in the ignition.

Too bad it's not like old VW's, unlock twice to unlock both doors, unlock a third time to roll down all the windows.

I am going to be fabricating a new console all the way up to the edge of the shift boot so I can have some damn cup holders that don't make me have to crane shift anymore haha, never had to drink so much out of cans haha.

Well no one wants to talk about my turbo setup I'll be putting together because everybody just buys a different motor and swaps it in haha.
