Triumph has the 2007 and 2008 on their website. You can check out the color changes.

Thanks...I hadn't been on the Triumph site for quite a while and found the info I was looking for about a minute after posting last night.

I've heard, but can't confirm:

- metal gas tank
- revised lights

I can verify the metal gas tank. The change in production was the main reason I have been waiting for 5 months for my new Sprint.

As for the lights I have no idea.

Projector lens curvature only, not the housing.

I just stopped by Pure Triumph (Ft. Lauderdale) y-day to see an '08 Sprint but they didn't have any! Ian, one of the owners, said they can't keep the dang things in stock. He said the last one they got was sold 3 hours after it was off loaded from the delivery truck. They are scheduled to get 3, 1 in each color, starting sometime in late January & on into Feb. He showed me a swatch of the new graphite gray & as far as I'm concerned, it's gorgeous. The new blue is beautiful also. And yes, the tank will be full metal this year. There was also something else w/the headlights, I think that would clarify the projected light better.
