Undocumented Feature?

Hey guys, I don't know about the US models, but I have the Euro Model and I have a roller cover over the cup holder area in the center console. The roller door top seems to be made of that non-slip material that they use on trays in restaurants. I always place my cell phone on it and it never slips.

Since there are very few places for placing small items like that. Maybe it wasn't an accident. Anyone else with the roller doors use it as a non-slip cell phone holder

I do, but apparently my phone skin is too smooth, it slid off easily. It's a neat feature nonetheless, good place to put coin in advance to pay for the toll, without having to dig the coin pocket. You can also remove the coin pocket and carry it around, mini piggy bank

No, but the cupholder makes a might fine non-slip cell phone holder too.
