Is this the latest version? What year are the maps?

Hold on.
The "E" version of GP9A is for 2007 to 2008, not for 2009.
I would advise you not to try it. The 2009 NAVI system is different from 2007-08 version. The disc is not compatible. AFAIK. Check with your dealer to see if I am correct.

See that in the pulldown menu, there is no 2009 CX9.

The navigation seems to be suffering from either poor algo or bad data on the disc. Mine has a newer disc. [purchased the CX9 GTAWD four weeks ago in SF Bay Area.]
 
I was in the stoneridge mall, right at the junction of I580 & I680. We were heading to twin-peaks in south san francisco. I did a POI lookup and selected guidance. It kept asking me to take I680 south to somewhere down south of san jose and then back to south SF for a total of ~200miles. I kept driving on I580 towards Baybridge and expected it to recalculate the route and show me the shorter distance, which was ~35 miles from where I started. But it never did. Even when I was close to Bay bride it kept asking me to exit and go back on I580 and drive >200 mi!
it is another thing that the POI did not show me twin peaks when searching under south san francisco.
But, as of now, i'm still happy with the vehicle overall.

Check your toll road setting.
It probably doesn't want you to take the Bay Bridge.

Would you please list the disc version that came with your CX? Thanks.

I purchased the 2009 CX-9 last weekend and the disc is a 2007 version.

2007 is the map (from MapQuest) version.
The last English letter in the part number is the disc version.
Yours is mostly like an "A".
 
e.g. For 2007-8, here is an "E" version
part #: GP9A-66-DZ0E <--- "E"

Hi Ceric,
 
Both my Rev D and Rev E say "2007 V.1" in the Version file on the actual disc.
 
My wife's 2-day old 2009 CX-7 appears to have the exact same POS maps. The version info said the same via the touchscreen interface. I'll be pulling the disc in the next few days to see what the label says, however it appears to be the same as the Rev D and Rev E since a local interchange that was red-done over 2 years ago is still not correct on her disc.
