Default Difference between MY07 and MY08 Tuned by STi liberty??

Can anyone give me the basic guts of what the diferences are between the MY07 and MY08 Tuned by STi Liberty's are.

I have found a MY07 in Qld for good dollars and an MY08 in Vic but there is $8k difference in price with similar Kms.

Just want to know if there is significant differences?

Thanks in advance.

Extra colours in 08 - black, silver, grey and white.

Suspension, Brakes, updated tranny shift patterns and STI all over it is worth 8K

Apparently there is unlikely to be an 09 tuned by STI as the libs are getting VDC (if it happens) and that makes suspension and brake changes very costly.

brakes are the same Brembos just painted differently, suspension is exact same bilstein w/ sti pinks, if its a proper 6MT then the tranny is no different either, if its a slush box then dont buy it.
