GD or GE 2008?

I feel like this is going to be defined as a dumb question and I won't be surprised if I get the classic, "search and you will find the answer".....
But...
...with that said, I'm getting tired of searching (which doesn't take long for me admittedly) and thought I would find the answer MUCH faster by simply asking. I have a 2008 Honda Fit Sport AT. I'd like to learn more about it to hopefully save money on maintenance and the like through this forum. My problem is that for the 2008, apparently there is a GD and GE version. All I'm finding is that GD essentially means 1st generation while GE means 2nd generation? How do I go about determining whether or not I have the GD 2008 or GE 2008 version?
For whomever answers, thank you for humoring my stupidity.

Yes its in the VIN. I want to say 4 or 5 digits in. Look for GD or GE that is the chassis code.

Yes 4th and 5th digit.

So there is nothing different as far as physical difference between GD and GE 2008 other then the VIN telling you which one you have? Or are there actual differences in the models? And thanks for the quick replies!
