Get you vin checked or check it yourself with epc.startekinfo.com/epc/ (its free with a US Credit Card)
What you need to check is your engine serial number as it is probably in the affected range
Also the 722.9 transmission is known to have some issues in 06-07 with the speed sensor which is not a cheap fix. Might want to research it a little as I am doing that from memory.
Ft Myers nice dealer last time I was visiting my grandparents I stopped in and couldn't believe how many low mileage cars they had.
Had a 2003 with like 30k on it lol
They also have this

The v8 can have the balance gear need to be replaced but it's not as much of an issue as the v6 cars and it's also not nearly as expensive. I'd say that the 07 is generally a little better with the electrical plates in the trans. I work at that dealer and that 07 is a nice looking car. I'm curious to see how long it sits around for. The 63 is a scary motor but worth it if you can jump ahead of the issues it could have.
