I was referring to the cup holder itself.

OK, this is a long thread about nothing...

On my 2008 E70 with 3rd row seat, it is NOT on the headrest!!

Here's the proof:

I'm thinking ol' Marcx is not entirely enthused or, convinced
about his new E70, based on his panic posts, thus far.

ha. panic posts? hardly. i love the car. have no regrets about it at all.

i do have some concerns... and i like to talk about those concerns here and there. but overall i love it.

i don't feel the need to come on here and talk about all the things that are great... which i'd happily do.... but these forums are much more useful for finding out info, solving problems, and sharing concerns so that future cars can be even better. happy holidays.

My 2008 is the same. Actually think it's a bit of an improvement as a design as the armrest is more at the right height. Looks like you have the skibag option like I do...I wonder if that has anything to do with it?

heh ok now I'm confused... how come one person's middle section folds completely and another only folds down from 3/4 of the way (not the headrest)? Is that because of the 1) ski bag option or the 2) 3rd row seats causing the 2nd row seats to be different?

I remember reading that the 2nd row split folds (60/40?) but Brian's pic leads me to think otherwise and the first set of pics leads me to think all 3 sections fold down individually.

Yes, seems like different options out there. Mine is two fold (60/40) sections (plus the smaller arm rest).

I have 3rd row and ski bag options. Maybe those two result in a certain configuration.

if you have 3rd row seat... the second row is different from normal. personally, i like the way the second row is when you "don't" have 3rd row seat... it's more even and 'bench' like....

you, of course, can prefer what the 2nd row seat looks like if you don't have 3rd row. I have no idea what you mean by it's more 'bench' like though. My 2nd row seat could not look more benchlike...
