I think this is going to make a lot of SRT-6 owners happy. According to the latest data from WARDS Automotive Report, a total of 12 SRT-6 were produced for the US as 2006 Model Year vehicles. Total production for the US was 6,191 in model year 2006. I don't yet have the breakdown of Coupes vs Roadsters but I will let you know when I get it.

Please let me know if you see one 4sale. I missed one on ebay not too long ago...

2005 Model Year U.S. SRT-6 = 3,137 Total - 1,183 Coupes and 1,954 Roadsters
2006 Model Year U.S. SRT-6 = 12

 

That's pretty interesting.
Wonder if that 12 is part of the 2,016 coupes/928 roadsters from 2005 - since they all have 2005 build dates (all that we've seen so far).
Either way, by today's standards - the SRT6 was a very low production vehicle.

Thanks for the info.

 

So, will those be the collectibles?

 

RPM,
I think so, most 2006 models were likely to have been built in 2005 calendar year.

 

I'd say if anyone has one... they should probably keep it in good condition for sure. 12 is a crazy low number of production cars. They make more Ferraris than that.

 

True, however it will be interesting to see if being an '06 instead of an '05 will effect value in the future - since there are absolutely no differences besides model year (and all the build dates are in 2005).

 

There is a dealer advertising on other forum.
They bought about 5-6. He was selling new for about $26-$28K.
05's of course.

Check it out...

 

Yeah, but it's all in the numbers.

 

It will be interesting to watch. Right now, not too many people know the low production number. IMO it will become a collectible in due time...
Note: I updated the original post with the 2005 Model Year figures.

 

Do you have the #'s for the coupes and roadsters backwards in post #1?

 

No, in fact they were more Roadsters than Coupes regardless of engine type. The total # for 2005 Model Year = 9,312 Coupes and 15,389 Roadsters. IMO the reason is that they wasn't any Roadsters available in 2004 Model Year.

 

I knew that there were more Limited roadsters than coupes, but I'm not sure about those SRT6 numbers.
Over the last 3 months, I've collected 561 SRT6 VINs. So far, around 72% are Coupes and 28% are Roadsters. Something doesn't sound right. Either most people who bought SRT6s bought roadsters and are still holding on to them (therefore they are not showing up on cars.com, ebay, etc.), or the numbers were listed backwards (or there could be another explanation - not sure).

 

RPM,
I don't know if there is an explanation, numbers and sample size can do funny things. Your sample size is 2.2% of total production and I don't know from a statistical point of view, if that's sufficient to draw any good conclusions. One thing I can tell you is that the company I work for paid something like $3,000 for those production numbers. For that kind of money, I would expect WARD's numbers to be accurate. That being said, I guess an human input error is not out of the question.

 

I really have to question these numbers. I am in Miami and I see 4 or 5 coupes to one roadster.

 

We are only talking about 2005s. If you take the 2004's into account which were only available as Coupes, its normal that you would see more coupes. No question there. Plus it's a well known fact, that convertibles in general sale better in cold regions of the country. NY Chicago and Detroit are among the top markets for convertibles.

 

If there are 3,149 total SRT6s out there, and I have 561 in my database (as I only collect SRT6 data), my data is almost 18% of total production. That's not too shabby of a percentage IMO.
I'm not trying to knock you or your post (please don't think that), but the ratio of SRT6 roadster vs. coupe is the opposite of what DCX's original numbers were and my data.
Not sure what's going on, but I would guess that the numbers are reversed.

 

Here's what Automedia thinks...

NP RPM, I don't disagree with your numbers either and if you look only at SRTs since that was the original topic, your sample size is very good. I will try to contact WARD's next week to see if they may have reversed the numbers. It may even be that the numbers provided to them by Chrysler were reversed. Keep up the good work on your database, since we can't rely on anything else.

I would love to find one of those '06 SRT Coupe in Aero Blue...

 

An even dozen '06 SRT6's sounds like a very desirable number to work with. Especially when you consider there was only 9 to 14 "1971 Hemi Cuda Convertibles", built. And we all know how collectible they are.

Too bad the SRT's are quicker.

 

Opposite of the claimed number? How? Did they not claim that there were 2,016 SRT Coupes and 928? Roadsters? For at least 2005? Where are you getting this 3,149 number from?

By the way thanks again RPM for creating your database...
