    So what are the difference between the 2. I think I have found a 06 that might fit my budget better then a 07.

    Wasnt 06 their first yr? Any bugs that need to be worked out?

    Factory remote start would be one. No more Inferno red for 2007. Once again wkjeeps.com is really a big help for these questions

    What's New for 2007

    EXTERIOR
    • Active turn signals (3-blink lane change)
    • Fuel tank, 21.1 gallon (increased from 20.5)
    • Taillamps, restyled, dual chamber
    • New color: Red Rock Crystal Pearl replaces Inferno Red

    INTERIOR
    • Tip start (prevents double starts and preserves battery and ignition gear life)
    • Mold-in-color cup holder
    • Side air bags standard
    • Available rear back-up camera
    • Available Remote Start

    DRIVETRAIN
    • (Same as 2006)

    If you are buying one at this stage. The bugs have been fixed. Plus 06s are easier to crack the PCM for tuning. The only bugs I have had with mine is the trans o-ring and the auto up window feature

    i just got off the phone with the dealer, the 06 turned out to be a 07 :(

    the sales man said the price will be about 36k and it has 13k miles.
