I haven't had any issues with mine (20,000 miles on it). But I like your wheels. Do you have any more photos? Mine is black on black C2S cab and I like your black wheels with bright rims.

06 with 16K miles. Squeeks and rattles all over. Before I took it to my dealer to get my tires and oli changed, noise only came from the top, as soon as I got it back, I've got noise from the doors, top and somewhere in the back. Getting so bad I have to turn the music up pretty loud just to cover all the noise.

I plan to take it back to the dealer to see what they can do but I just haven't had time.

I don't have a cab, but my 07 C2S coupe has more squeaks and creaks than all three of my e46 M3's had combined. I really can't hear them much with the climate control on, or radio playing, but still annoying. For some reason that I have not been able to determine, I have a particularly bad squeak that sounds like it is coming from rear of car after I wash the car. By the next day, it is much better, but sounds like a cheap mattress right after I wash the car. I do not have any rattles, just squeaks and creaks.

sorry to hear that so many owners have squeeks and rattles...this is one area where Porsche could take a lesson out of Lexus' playbook...

It's much easier for luxury cars to be free of squeaks than sports cars. My experience is that if you have an S version of any Porsche model with 19" wheels, there's a good chance that you will develop squeaks and rattles, especially with verts. On the other hand a luxury car with 17" wheels and its relatively plush suspension that absorbs most of the road shocks, typivally generate few squeaks or rattles.
