On a recent 2 hour trip, I got with me the best...i mean the best looking cup holder ever (IMHO). On a turns and fast accelaration, it adjust by itself so the drink wont spill and when it get quiet, it talks to me and act as my GPS but sometimes I get reminded once in awhile when i get carried away on turns

Hey i think i have the same cup holder as you unklekraker. Mine is Lebanese, where was yours made?

Mine has got the version 2.0 update, updates include Wind Sensor to remind me that its windy when the top is down. And Temp reminder... About every 3 minutes it reminds me of how cold or warm it is in the car.

I think we have the same cup holder. It still has 1.0 version as Im the original owner but has the capability of ver. 2.0 like what you have in regards of wind sensor and temp. reminder. the only thing that sucks is, it's very annoying once you dont turn off or follow the reminder/sensor..you know what i mean! BTW..it's made part China and Philippines.

Whatever you do - don't upgrade to Version 3.0. Unfortunately, I had this upgrade performed for me around 6 months ago and it actually un-installs the cupholders. Hell, if you aren't careful, it also tries to uninstall the Boxster along with, 1/2 of House, 1/2 of Bank Account, and 1/2 of all worldly goods. I was "lucky" enough that I caught it halfway through - so I managed to keep the Boxster. It was close. Of course, I don't have a house anymore either... But I do still have a Boxster.

LOL- mine three. I thought I got the naviagtor version but instead they installed the NAGigator. Wish I could turn down the volume that alerts me to too much wind, cold, heat, speed, etc. I'm afraid of trying to upgrade to 2.0 as I might lose 1/2 of all my other options
