2008 Toyota Camry Solara Convertible

It's been called "dated" and droopy by reviewers around the Web--but Toyota's sticking with the Camry Solara convertible for another couple of years, according to word from the annual management seminars taking place in Traverse City, Mich., this week.

The 2009 Toyota Camry Solara and 2010 Toyota Camry Solara convertibles will exist, though they were supposed to enter permanent retirement this month, a Toyota executive told Automotive News. However, Steve St. Angelo, president of Toyota's Kentucky automotive operations, said customers wanted the car to go on.

Toyota built nearly 30,000 Solaras in 2007, but the split between coupes and convertibles wasn't available--and Toyota didn't clarify if the coupe would also survive.

I just saw this article today, 8/14/09. Is it still true that 09 and 10 convertibles will be produced?? Every dealership I talk to says no except for one that said maybe, but they dont know when they will come out. One would think there will be no 09s but if there are going to be 2010's, I want one!! I havent been able to find one in the lite blue-tan interior sle.
