Can you show shots? You sound too much like a Nikon commercial ;-)

What a difference. Biggest improvement for me though is color and skintones. Then probably ISO/Noise. 3rd would probably be the fact I am getting less almost zero soft shots. Anyone on the fence wondering if theres much of a difference. There is.

Metering:  the D600 uses the same 2016 RGB TTL metering as the D7000.  Of course the output from this chip might have been tweaked by Nikon.  But I get great colour and skintones from my D7k so I don't see room for improvement and certainly wouldn't spend any money on this.

Green colour shift:  many reviewers have complained about the green colour shift on the D600 just like on the D800.  This shift affects not just the screen but the actual file.  How is THAT better than a D7k?

AF:  the D600 has the very same AF sensor than the D7000, resulting in the AF points being all too tightly grouped in the center giving much less flexibility - how is that good?  Also given that it's the very same chip, how could it give better results, especially with the shallower DOF that comes from a larger sensor?  On my D7k it works just fine.

But go ahead, show some shots - maybe it'll become clearer.

Though I know I'm not going to bother with another DSLR again in my life - it's a dated design that just hinders my photography, in the digital age I want something that's natively made for digital.
