difference between 07 and 08 fit . . anything major?

just wondering the differences between the 07 and 08
and i know the 08 has an i-vtec in the motor but is that actually more beneficial compared the just a vtec on the 07?
but seriously is there anything that majorly different or. . would it be exactly the same . . even performance wise? thanks

mm the i-VTEC is only offered in the upcoming 09 2nd gen fit*which is extremely beneficial*
the wipers i do believe are different in the front.
as well as the adjustments for the airbag timing recall, which was done under warranty if you own an 07.
i've noticed a dash change, the "fit" symbol i've only seen in 08's. but it may just be that i own an AT which has the manual gear window in its place.
these are the changes i've seen so far.

yeah for early 07's.
i had the paperwork from the previous owner when i bought my fit.(got my 07sport with only 3k on the odometer :3)
looked it up, the airbags were deploying too early or too late, but a simple dealer update fixed it.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System. Like F033x said, i-VTEC comes on 2009 models. 2007 and 2008 models have the same L15 VTEC engine.

Apparently I was told the shift know on the 08 is a bit bigger than the 07 in Canada and we don't have the tire pressure monitor here.

Aside from that it all looks exactly the same.
