I am a bit confused about the seat configuration of the CO 752 and 739.
On both seatguru and continental.com they show that the B757-200 has row 15 and 16 as exit rows and that the wing ends at row 21 and that the last row is 34.
But on my booking when I look at the seat map it says that the exit rows are row 20 and 21, doesnt show where the wing ends and the last row is row 40:
The same goes for the 737-900, On Continental.com and seatguru they show the exit rows as rows 14 and 15, the wing ends around row 20 and the last row is 32.

I have come to learn to never, ever rely on seat maps on where the wing exactly begins and ends. Seatmaps were not created for that purpose anyway. The wings are just drawn on there to show where the nose is to the untrained eye.
Hope that helps.

Do you have any idea of where the wing ends (which row) on the CO 752 and 739?

Gabriel:
I know that CO changed the layout and format of their seat map's recently, creating the new look you see on your posting. They created the dedicated area of the cabin for Preferred customer seating and may be in the process of re-numbering the rows in the aircraft. Hopefully, a CO person can clarify that for you. Otherwise, rely on what the airline website shows you and request or change your seats accordingly. This change to CO seat maps was very recent and if they are changing row numbers or layout, those changes may not appear in a non-airline supported website like seatguru or seatexpert.
Not sure exactly what you mean by "where the wing ends" in reference to these aircraft and seat rows. Note the red arrow denoting the overwing exit and count back several rows beyond the trailing edge of the wing. Do you want to have a view of the ground or the wing? I'd select rows 25 or higher to get at the trailing edge or beyond the wing on both aircraft as the exit rows are shown as 20 and 21.
Again, I hope a CO person can first-hand answer your questions, but I did want to offer some help as well. Best Wishes for a good trip,
Thomas

But the problem is that CO shows two different layouts on their website!

I want to sit on the row where the trailing edge of the wing is so I can get a view of both the wing and the ground.
