What were they thinking?

I have the 2010 5 door liftback.

I know this is picky, but why is there only one cup holder?
Am I to share this single cup holder with my passengers?

Where are you supposed to store your cd's without a center console?
I have looked in all the storage spaces and some are wide enough but none are the proper size for holding a cd case. Maybe I need to hide my cd's in the hatch?

My 2009 3 door also is deficient in cd storage, compared to my ECHO. I can get two cds in the little nook by the parking brake. Does your have a nook there? I have to plan ahead with such limited sotorge. In so many ways the Yaris is a step down from the ECHO!

[Lorenzo1950]

Yes I have noticed the nooks and will try placing the cd's there.
I like the Yaris but it's a very quirky car.

Hm the Yaris has several cupholders. :iono:

yup, what about the 2 by the air vents? I can fit a huge jumbo cup from taco bell in there.... that's 3 total?

[Lorenzo1950]

Yes I just found them. I was thinking they were coin holders and wondering why there were three of them. I think the bottle holders are a nice touch and I was able to fit two cd's in that space. I usually place my maps there. Still, I miss the center console.
You can't have everything. There were many little things about my Honda Civic I did not like.

Who carries CDs with them anymore? With MP3 players being a more convenient way to carry your tunes, why bother dragging your CDs to and from the car anymore? It's much easier to rip them to your iPod, Zune or even your smart phone, and save yourself the trouble!

My 08 hatch has five cup holders...two behind the front vents, one in the center console and two in the panels in the back seat. Since you can only carry five people in the car, that's one apiece!

Is that compatible with my 8 track stuff? :headbang:

[Black Yaris]

I don't even think I own a CD anymore

[Damo]

Ive gotta say, its been a while since Ive taken CDs into my car also...

And because I dont want anyone eating or drinking in the car anyway, I find that there are way too many cupholders as it is!

[thebarber]

i keep my cd's in the upper glove box...can fit 2 stacks of them up there

and there are 2 cupholders under the vents, 1 in each door sort of as part of the map pokcets...more for bottles.....one in the center behind the ebrake and 1 on each side in the rear in the cubbies....

[Lorenzo1950]

I'm 60 years old and I am behind the times. Can you tell me how the WiFi and Bluetooth work? I thought Bluetooth was used for mobile phones and you wear an earpiece so you can talk hands free. I was one of the last ones to buy a vcr, a cd player, a pc, a dvd player and a cellphone. I feel like Davey Crockett; born on a mountain top in Tennessee. Older than dirt.

I have 7 in my 2010 5 door. . . one bottle holder in each door (4), on in the center, and 1 on each corner vent (2). Toyota also has some sort of ash tray / cup holder assemble thing that snaps in, in that empty tray in front of the gear shift console that will add one more cup holder

[Lorenzo1950]

You can see how much I know. Actually, I posted earlier that the third day I had the car someone damaged it and kept on going. Smashed the taillight, rear bumper and put a nice dent in the rear quarter panel. Got the bill today for over $1,600.00. Fortunately, it was not my fault and the insurance company paid all but $250.00. I am so glad there is an Uninsured Motorist Fund. I am still discovering new things about the car. Today was my fourth actual day with the car since June 5th .

[BluYrs]

I keep my CDs in a large "wallet" in the pocket behind the front passanger seat- it's easy to reach from the driver's seat and does not interfere with anything.

Also, I find MP3 CDs more convenient than messing about with wires for an external player (no AUX jack on my Yaris). I do have an FM transmitter with USB, but as the quality is close to crap, it's reserved for "emergencies" only.

[Stove]

1 cup holder :laugh:, glad you found the rest. I don't keep more than one CD in the car anymore and that one fits in the stereo. A couple of years ago when I was refusing to buy an i-pod I had a CD storage thing that strapped onto the sun visor.

[IllusionX]

my cds goes in the arm rest... though, i have a sedan that CAME with an arm rest....

[why?]

i put my cd's in the glove box, or either of the upper glove box storage spaces. I'm mad that my ipod connector broke, need to go buy a new one.

[Yaris Hilton]

I can haul as much in my Yaris sedan as in the Volvo 860 Turbo I traded in for it.

All you young whippersnappers and your newfangled hippity-hop gizmos...! :eek:

My 8-Track in the Yaris kicks butt! :cool:

It really works good for me... :biggrin:

Question: What the hell's a "CD" and "map"? :iono:

You could just get a circular CD pouch:

I got one that sits comfortably under the power outlet completely out of the way
