61257 = Limited Roadster
61367 = Limited Coupe
61376 = Limited Roadster

Additional proof is confirmed via the full VIN's which show engine code "L" in slot 9 instead of "N":

1C3AN65LX6X061257
1C3AN69L36X061367
1C3AN65L76X061376



Yes. This is where it gets confusing as the numbers overlap - so there is no "exact" crossover point. Based on my research so far, 2005 models end with 61093 while 2006 models begin earlier - with 60753.

For example, notice how these 2005 and 2006 sequence numbers are mixed:

5X061050
5X061051
6X061052
5X061053
5X061055
5X061056
6X061058
6X061059

So 61051 is a 2005 model, 610252 is a 2006 and 61053 is a 2005. For whatever reason Chrysler decided to fill in unused 2005 sequence numbers on the 2006 builds. I noticed the same "overlap" a couple years back when I was working on some 2008 Crossfire numbers.

This is why I would highly recommend that you add the "5X0" and "6X0" prefix's to your database (easy to do in Excel). While there happens to be no "crossover" numbers for SRT6 models there are, as shown above, crossover numbers for non-SRT models. What I have found in working on other registry's is that you cannot always go by numbers that are provided by owners or other sources (like ebay, Auto Trader etc.) - they often make mistakes in numbers and model years.
