Default Model year vs production month?

I'm looking at an XK8 for sale, built 5/99. When did they switch model year production? Is this a 99 or a 2000? What changes did they make between the two years?

If the last 6 characters of your VIN are 042775 or less, it's a '99. If the last 6 start with 'A', then it's 2000. See attached.
