It's a bit of a late reply, but I just thought I'd add that "MY" stands for "Manufacturer's Year", aka "Model Year". Insurance companies will use this figure to say that the car was physically built in that year, but most car manufacturers, particularly Subaru, use this to represent the design year.
In the case of the Liberty, there were a number of changes between 2006 and 2007 including a facelift inside and out as well as some small functional changes such as the ECU on N/A cars was changed from Hitachi to Denso which allowed them to be easily tuned. With that in mind, your car was physically built in 2006, but it was built to MY07 spec.
Subaru Japan typically start building next year's model from about July or August of that year. By the time they ship here to sell it's late September or early October.
But as mentioned earlier, the VIN will be definitive proof.
Anyway, nice ride and welcome aboard.
I was going to procrastinate, but I put it off...
