Default 38 foot 2007 vs. 2008 Lightning differences?

My old boat was a 38 foot Powerquest with 525's. Had it for 10 years. Great boat.
Sold it a could years ago and miss going fast.

I'm in the market to buy a 2007 or 2008 Fountain with 525's full stagger. I believe the first year they went with a full stagger was 2007?
What are the differences between these 2 model years? Also, with the same power, do both these boats run around 90-95 in a 38?
I'm looking for differences in interior, exterior, engines and drives.. and any changes to the hull? Pretty much anything people have seen

Thanks all

2007 has new style interior, cabin is the old style. 2008 has updated cabin.
As far as I know that is the only differences.

I thought the new cabin was an option because I still see the old style available in 2015's on the Fountain website. Maybe 2008 was the first year as the option. I wasn't sure if that's what Wildman was referring to. Personal taste, but that new still is a big improvement.
