My brain must sense 'fitment into a holder or not', as I haven't yet let go of a beverage during such futile reaches into thin air. I really like the front of the center console on the 3rd Gen, and the clearance it has under the dash. My new Yaris did come with a 1 USB 12v plug, but I ended up buying a 2 USB 12v plug at Wal-Mart for $12 something plus tax. I can now put a beverage in the right front cup holder, put a phone in the left cup holder, and another phone in the space behind those two holders. I use those really thin retractable USB cables with each phone...so I can now charge two phones at once with no fuss, plus hold a beverage, all without worrying about any of that falling out of where it has been placed.

I don't have 2nd gen. experience (driving one all the time) but I knew this would be interesting for you. (or STRANGE, more like it

) It's basically the same car (size & feel) but totally rearranged on the inside! It's like coming home in the dark and having all the furniture rearranged, lol -
I use the USB hook-up for the iPod in the glove box, but that's about all tech. wise. Charge the phone upstairs when it needs it (once a month, LOL) I just turn it off & leave it in the glove box. We've always had a land-line.
I LOVE sitting HIGH in this car. I mostly drive the Yaris, when I'm driving the other car I do find myself going for a window crank instead of the PW switch on the console now and then
I just need to find a few Toyota 5.0 emblems for the front fender space, or maybe just one for the rear - that would freak a few teenagers out
