    I've ordered a 2007 base with package #5 but the ship isn't suppossed to arrive into port until the 4th of July week. Any idea when the cutover to 2008 models happen? Is it possible to receive a 2008 even though a 2007 was ordered because of the timing of the shipment being close to the new season?

    So what's supposed to happen if you ordered a 2007 after 05/10/07 - like we did?

    If the dealer can find one you will get what you ordered or offered something other than you ordered. Otherwise they'll probably say "sorry, you can get a comparable 2008 for $x more".
