any major difference?
is the engine louder on highway speeds?
anything like that?
which would you get?

 

im not 100% sure, but i think the only difference were real minor.. like 08 has TPMS, different wiper blades.

imho either are good to go. just look for a clean one.

 

^^ Ken nailed it exactly.+ No Taffeta White in 08, they replaced it with ?? Tidewater Blue me thinks.

 

that's right, no taffeta white in on 08's. so i got a 09 in taffeta white.

 

One is odd.... the other is even

Very minor stuff, I think they had a few different interior color options in 08'.


In Canada the color Taffeta White became available in 08'... the 07's didn't come in that color.

 

If you want to swap out wheels more often than some swap drawers, get an 07 (no TPMS. If you just want a slightly newer slice of the awesome get the 08, you won't go wrong in either case.

 

You would be better off thinking "Sport or Base".

 

Didn't the gauge cluster change ? Ya the 07's had "Fit" on the tach

 

my 07 tw has the ugly (imo) beige interior... got dirty so quickly im now having to look into an interior swap or custom fit seat covers...

 

I thought all the sport model GD's had TPMS? M'right?

 

nope tpms is 08 and gauges stayed the same.. seat patterns better in 08

 

the 07s dont have TPMS.

07 had TW
08 had BBP

BOM was available for base 07s and was only on sports for 08

 

In 07 they also had the color Lunar Mist Metallic which was only available on base models. It is probably the most rare of all the colors.



Notice how the color on the GD3 compares to the TWB GE8. I have never seen one in person, nor have I seen one that has been modded.

 

if i win the lottery tomorrow i'm finding a lunar mist metallic GD......

 

07 had lunar mist metallic and taffeta white

08 had blackberry blue pearl, tidewater blue, and the "tire pressure monitor system" (TPMS). i guess one can say that the gauge is "different" for 08 because it has the TPMS light.

 

the 07 came with the k20

 

The 07 is older than the 08!
