Differences between 2007 and 2008 RL

Hi guys, I am looking at a 2007 and a 2008 RL. Any info on the differences between the features for the two years? Any reason I should buy the 2008 and not the 2007, all things being equal (mileage, price, etc)?
Thanks for your input!

One or two exterior color options changed. That's it. The car fax should be able to show when it arrived on the lot. For example, when I was looking, there was an '07 and '08 that were VERY similar, but $3k more for the '08. The car fax showed my '07 getting to the lot in May '08 and the '08 getting there Nov '08. The 6 months wasn't worth $3k to me. 12 months may make a difference in wear.
