Fun fact: instead of cupholders, 1970s cars would proudly advertise the number of ashtrays they had equipped the car with, usually 1 within reach of every seat. This number was equally important as horsepower or price on marketing materials.

I have a Trabant, a car from East Germany that was made pretty much as cheap as possible. Still has ash trays front and back.
