The Boxster "Affair"

And in the rare chance that I do go, I'll get a bottled water to save me the trouble. So I can truthfully argue the point that my Boxster has helped me lead a more healthy lifestyle.

Porsche obviously frowns on people snacking in their cars. I think there are two reasons:

1. If you have ever been in a car where the occupants have spilled drinks and left crumbs and food wrappers it is messy. If you have ever been to Germany, you know the Germans liker order.
2. It detracts from the driving experience. Snacking while driving a Porsche would be like going on a date with a beautiful woman and spending your time reading texts.

On the flip side - there are many of us who enjoy a nice, cool beverage when we drive and having a quality cup holder allows us to spend more time in the car instead of having to pull over now and then to get a drink.
If you were on a date with a beautiful woman, where would you take her? Many of us would take her to a fine restaurant - to enjoy a nice beverage! And since my car IS my beautiful woman (besides my wife), I'd like to enjoy a nice beverage with her.
