+1 on that. I had a gas-station paper cup with a leak that dripped coffee w/ sweetener into the climate control temp + button. In cool weather it's hard to push in, and in warm weather it stays clicked in (the sugar is sticky).

2001 was the first year for cupholders in the Boxster, and I think the center dash design was the same in 02. They feel flimsy and are not effective to "hold" cups when accelerating. Depending on the restaurant or gas station, they will do adequate for up to 20 oz cups, but the cup may be held by the circumference rather than the bottom. Bottled water, in my experience, will not fit.
