Where's the cupholder? Is it hidden somewhere?

Maybe back seat cupholders, but we're talking about front console. MBUSA website photos show no front cupholders.

Yes all, come with cupholders.
Havent been in a e350 for a couple of weeks. will check one out tomorrow and see if it is where you may have some storage compartment or something like that..

If it takes you 17 hours to get to the snow fields you must be from Nth Queensland or Tassie.

I don't need or want cupholders in my ride. That way there is no excuse for anyone drinking in my car. Or EATING GREASY FOODS.

So, if your car had cupholders people would eat greasy foods in your car? I never thought to blame the cupholders.

Nah, it's just that I notice that people usually don't bother to get anything to go if they can't sit their drink down. They see it as too much of a hassle to hold thier drinks and try to eat at the same time so they just keep the fast food in the bag until we reach our destinations. Compared to my Cadillac with cup holders. They just make themselves right at home.

So people DO eat greasy foods in your Caddie because it has cupholders. If someone in your Caddie starts eating and you don't want them to, do what I do. Smack them on their forehead with the back of your right hand. Then say loudly, as Nancy Reagan would say to drugs, "NO!"

Back before there were cupholders, everyone would snuggle the drink up to their crotch. I still do that in a car without cupholders. The drink spills easy if it's full. Sometimes, one squeezes a little too hard and pops the plastic lid off of the cup, then look out.

It's better to have cupholders if you're going allow drinks in the car, no?

When I did allow people to eat and drink in my car, my first car, (The Cadillac Days) They made a mess and I soon learned. Ever since then no food allowed. And all my German cars after that just happened to not have cupholders whixh just work as a reinforcement.

I have a 2007 E350 and it has 2 cupholders in the front console. You have to slide the cover back and it has 2 cup holders inside.. Hope this helps.....Jimmy
