Default Production Changes

Hello everyone,

I apoligized if this topic has been discussed before, but I've done several searches and couldn't find any similar threads.

Anyway- I'm a former owner and the bug has bitten me again to buy a Crossfire. I owned a red Limited coupe from 2006-2008 (the car met it's demise in Tropical Storm Hermine), and my Dad loved my Crossfire so much he bought a black SRT-6 coupe. After recently moving to a new place, I've noticed a couple of my neighbors have Crossfires. Seeing them every day has me really missing these cars. I remember when the concept car debuted, and sat in an early production car at an auto show, too. I just think they're such neat little cars.

Recently I've started looking around at Crossfires online again. Something I noticed in my searches is that the glovebox design changed- it appears for the 2007 model year? Instead of the whole compartment opening downward, a smaller door opens outward for the new design. Were there any other production changes/updates I'm not aware of? Obviously 2005 ushered in the Roadster & SRT-6 varients, Aero Blue paint, and Cream interior options... but I'm talking more along the lines of stuff like the updated glovebox design. After owning 2 DeLoreans, minor production changes like these fascinate me for whatever reason. Plus, at 6'3", that updated glove box design is most welcome. With my long legs, I couldn't open my glovebox if I was in the passenger seat of my Crossfire. Another small change I remember was the LCD screen on the radios got bigger, I believe for the 2005 model year. Are there any other production changes I'm not aware of?
