From the information I have seen, the earliest registered serial number for a Crossfire ends in 00041. That means that the first 40 units were all testing/demo vehicles never intended to be released to the public.

Some of you may remember years ago, I owned "The Crossfire Shop" where I sold used parts from wrecked Chrysler Crossfires. I would buy vehicles through Copart, ship them to Ohio, and part them out.

I remember one listing that I ran across on Copart (I still regret not buying it) for a 2004, Sapphire Blue Crossfire coupe. It had minor damage, drivers side front fender and door were lightly side swiped.

The serial number on that vehicle ended in 00006, the 6th vehicle off the production line. Never intended to be registered, it must have been used by a Chrysler executive and somehow made it into public hands.

No idea who purchased it or what became of it, hopefully someone realized what it was and repaired it instead of scrapping it. Somewhere in my files I have copies of the auction pictures and serial number plate.

Did anyone save that piece of history?
