The 2007s had the 3.4L M97 engine. The 2006s had the 3.2L late M96. Rated power was higher on the 3.4 (295 v 280, IIRC), but the actual performance difference was fairly small. In fact, on the track the performance difference between my 3.2 and my friend's 987.2 DFI 3.4 was small enough to be immaterial.
The elephant in the room on these cars is the IMS bearing, but both the 2006 late M96 and M97 have the same (updated) IMS bearing.
