Default Any differences between 06 and 07

I was just wondering if there are really any differences between the 06 and 07 model CTS-V's? I'm seeing a few that are a few thousand less than the 07's and have about the same miles. So any info would be great! What should I look out for when buying my V? I really just want to pull the trigger and get one this week, but I just want to be 100% sure before I do.

Thanks guys for all the newb questions i've been asking.

Thats what I thought... i was just wondering if they had made any improvements on anything from year to year, like drivetrain improvements or interior, electronics or anything for that matter.

No changes that i know of. Almost bought an 07 silver/grey with a K&N intake and Corsa from a dealer with 28k miles. Ran and looked great! They were asking $29k... prob could have haggled to $25ish and came out around $27k after TTL and fees...

Stealth Gray to Thunder Gray color.
The '07 oil filter has 22mm threads and it is a 'little' filter. I have not yet found any larger conversion oil filters.

The reason the 07s are probably more is because they have some warranty left. Thats all I can think of.
