Correct me if I'm wrong here - on page 15 it appears the photos are mixed up, the LCI (newer car) is on the left.

And Speed_Force, 07 was the first official year I thought.

I LOVE that abbreviation. Calvin, however, will be less than amused. Actually, he will laugh, he's as sarcastic as the rest of us.

Page 15 is correct-2 things to look at confirm this:-

1-The boot (trunk)lid profile below the number plate.
2-The smaller cut-out for the tail pipes.

March 07 was the actual date LCI started production. For some reason in the US they class 08s as LCIs, I didnt think model year 08 started until about July/August time though.
