Last weekend I rented a 2009 camry in Hertz, which was on its own strange,
since it is only beginning of August, so I would think it would too early
for the new model year to trickle to rental fleets so soon... To my
surprise, it had over 9 thousand miles on the odometer already - this
pushed
me into a little investigation :-) I could not believe it was really 2009!
But in the glove box there was a 2009 user manual... I checked the VIN
sticker in the driver door seal and I found the manufactured date 03/08.
I remember when 2007 model year first found its way to the dealer****ps in
the beginning of 2006 the excuse was that this is new generation, complete
redesign, so this is why it was so early... What is the excuse to build
2009
model year in March of 2008 ? Is this common now for other cars or the
camry
is some kind of exception from the rule?
