I used to drive my Pantera to work every Friday ... back before retirement. I mounted an aftermarket folding cup holder in place of the ash tray. When there's a drink in it I have to lift my forearm to shift gears. Its not something I would use when driving vigorously, for that situation the cup holder folds up and out of the way. But for cruising and relaxed driving its a wonderful convenience.
I don't remember where I purchased mine, but I did a search and they are still available.

And , as Marlin suggested, I have managed to splash my favorite mocha on the console and seat cushions a time or two.
