Subject: [Leica] M6 vs M7 question

I have a chance to buy a clean M7 body for $1500.  I would classify it 
cosmetically as Ex to Ex-.  Everything works, clean glass, etc.  There is 
some visible wear in the black finish on the edges, but that's about all.  
If I get it I'll have to sell my M6 (probably Ex+, miniscule marks on the 
top, barely visible).  If I can get $1200 for the M6 I might consider the 
deal.  I'd appreciate any comments on M6 vs M7 from folks who've had 
experience with both.  My reason for wanting the M7 is mainly the 
auto-exposure function, but the flareless RF spot is also a plus.  TTL flash 
is less important since I never use flash.  Both cameras have the .72 finder.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
