Headlights are also different as they have an electronically adjustable levelling device. This is pretty useless as it hardly varies the beam height at all but it does mean there is no manual adjuster on the headlight assembly for height.

There is also no cut off switch for the passenger airbag. In US models this is beside the ashtray. There was no free luggage deal for the UK on new purchases. I think those are all the differences...oh wait, I forgot one. The steering wheel is on the wrong side.

I just saw a 2006 USA dealer Crossfire brochure and it showed the same SRT6 badge on the side ! Didn't see the any rear pictures. The 2006s where advertised in the Chrysler brochures but, later discontinued ! Because of poor sales on Crossfires. These cars are most likely just left over '05s and never intended for sale ! I think all were stored or sold as Chrysler executive or Factory owned cars !
As far as being worth more because they were '06s I don't think it makes much difference just like the Stock LTD '08s aren't worth more ! YET maybe in 10-20 years who knows.
