Default lowest build number for an 08

Just wondering how close my o7 came to being an 08 with a build number of 74199. I saw an o8 on ebay with a build number of 74264 and that aroused my curiosity.

7X074262 was the last 07.
8X074263 was the first 08.

Thanks

2004 4X000014 * - 4X025453 **
2005 5X025454 ***- 5X061056
2006 6X061057 - 6X069949
2007 7X069950 - 7X074262
2008 8X074263 - 8X076047

* In the early part of the 2004 production run there were numerous skipped VINs (1-13, 15, 16, 18, 19, 21). I assume those VINs were used in test vehicles or were reserved for other purposes.

** I believe to be the highest 2004 VIN (see note below).

*** Though it looks like the coupe switchover to the 2005 model formally begins at 25454, there are actually a few 2005 Crossfire roadsters and SRTs with lower VINs. For example, 5X025366 is an SRT and 5X025367 is a roadster. Maybe they were units pulled off the coupe assembly line to creat the first roadsters and SRTs.

Thank you very much Rob M, you enable me to complete my history and description of the Crossfire on CarDomain. Here is the link: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2632193/11

I work for an OEM and I can confirm that you are most likely correct regarding the first 2005 Roadster and SRT having lower numbers. We do it all the time.

Thanks again.

I learned from Ross at Grapevine CJD that the Crossfire I have on order from him has a build number of 8X074674. When I called this in to my insurance company they told me it was a 2008 Chrysler Crossfire. It better be as that is what I am buying!! Yet I can't find the date of build in our forum using those numbers.

Can someone set me straight?

I'll be known as Cheaper Ride this time--even with the shipping charge. This Oyster Gold metallic clearcoat, with Nav system and automatic cost me $2290 less than my first Crossfire that I bought locally. It will cost me $749 to transport it to Nampa but still a heck of a deal.

Thanks, Jim

First, if your insurance company shows it to be a 2008, it is a 2008. All new cars are held in a mysterious central data base that financial institutions can look up.

Second, my car, also from Grapevine, is #74915 manufactured in Oct, 2007. It is a genuine 2008.

Third, you VIN falls in the 2008 range.

Fourth, Be Happy

The 8 before the X denotes the Model Year, 8 = 2008
All 2008's were built in 2007, the last one rolled off the line on December 17, 2007
