Need the advice from y'all

Owned a 2004 clk amg. Wrecked it on April 4th. And it was deemed totaled.

So, here i am, car less,and on the prowl.

Always loved the CLS so now i have the forced opportunity to purchase one.

So begs the question. 2006 or 2007 amg?

I know the major difference, engine, and it simply seems they reversed torque/horsepower.

Outside of that, what are your opinions?

Thanks for helping me out.
