Default '08 Heritage Softail question

Did H-D make the 2008 anniversary models outside of the actual 2008 model year? I was at a local indy dealer today and they had a 2008 Copper/Black anniversary edition with a sale tag listing it as a 2007. I mentioned it to the sales guy, and the VIN showed the bike as a 2007 and not a 2008.

Thanks,
mikebaby

Could have been a 'tin' swap.

Can't imagine anyone going out of their way to get the Duracell tins, but that's just me.
