Shifting with a soda pop in the cup holder can be a PITA. Its just not comfortable.

You're not alone, having a cup in the holder makes you adjust your arm to shift.

I agree. Those are only good for once you hit the road in high gear. Other than that, its a hassle if you are trying to play a bit. WS6 had one that spun off the dash, and one built into the passenger door. Wish there was one somewhere else.

I have to put it In the rear cup holder and when there's more than one drink its ridiculously uncomfortable. I saw a company made a cup holder delete so u could install switches if you needed them for mods and what not and I couldn't believe it eliminated the rear cup holder. Might as well get rid of both at that point because I only use the front one if a passenger opened a drink before I told them it makes it a PITA to shift

If you never eat or drink in your Camaro it's not a problem either.

Try the 12 oz size instead of the half gallon size and it could make a difference, haha JK
