Probably the difference between the 2008 and the 2008.5, the 08.5 had different Exterior color choices and the interior had some minor changes also.

Correct-a-mundo. The 2008 1/2 is a far prettier car (CWP). Plus the interior is nicer and the GT has a MP3 player.

Look for shiny black interior trim on the dash. That's one clue that I know of.

That is the biggest noticeable thingis the interior of the 2008.5. Piano Black on the 2008.5
The paint is still a $200 option on both.
Build date after the 1st of the year I do believe also.
