Thanks. Nav/Maps seems to be fine now. I guess i just had to drive it around a bit. Targa rood seems to be creaking a bit louder than i thought. I hope its just that is was so cold out. Here are some pictures. More to come.

Congrats on the new car! I see you bought it from Select Luxury just outside Atlanta - I live close by and go there to look at their cars every now and then - they always have very unique cars with hard-to-find options. Yours is no different - with the green paint, Turbo wheels, PCCB's, and given it's a Targa (rare in its own right) - don't think you'll ever pull up to another one like it at a stop light!

I also have PCCB's - they are easier to maintain than regular brakes - only thing you have to worry about is a brake flush every 2 years (normal for any 911). I have 39k miles on mine with no wear showing - love the lack of brake dust too!

As for the cupholder, my dealer told me there's not much they can do to service them - typically they just replace the module under warranty. Mine was out of warranty when I noticed it sometimes doesn't click shut - I'm just living with it. Takes a few tries but it eventually stays put.

Now that you have posted photos, you are likely to receive helpful information. LOL!
That is a beautiful color you have there. You should be driving regularly within the next 1.5 months.

on my 997.1s the cup holder door seems little lose too, I hardly use it to be annoyed by it but since I am still under warranty I should get it checked out and replaced..
I have PCCB as well with 28k miles and love them but at same time it scares me when time comes to replace them rotors..
car looks good, congrats

I agree. I've had 997's for almost 4 years, and I still can't remember which way to turn the **** to zoom in or out.
