Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
Hey! Thanks a bunch! One question on digit 6, which in my case is a 6. The decode shows a "5" stands for "premium" but does not show what 6 stands for.

There is something wrong with the chart you have attached. It shows that the crossfire VIN starts with a "4" but every Crossfire VIN I've ever seen starts with a one (1). |

Watanah I believe the "6" designates the car as an "SE" edition, which is a "Base" Roadster with SRT6 wheels and offered in Blaze Red only. |

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
If the Crossfire is mfg in Germany, how come it doesn't start with a "W"
BMW: WBA.... Audi: WAULT...... North American codes are usually 1,2,3 Anyone know why? |

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
Hmmm. interesting and somewhat confusing. I believe the 1 in the first digit really means "made for -- market" meaning 1 for US market. If you look at the 11th digit, which is "X" indicating the Osnabruck Germany assembly plant.
Still confused about the 6th and 7th digits tho. Wanatah |

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
The info I had was that 1st digit position indicated country of origin. And Chrysler was given permission by FEDS to use a "1" which indicated that the car was built by Daimler-Chrysler. More of a manufacturer designation than country of origin.
And my 07 XFire has an "L" in position 4. The safety constraint system was somewhat different (Restraint System Advanced Multistage Front Air Bags). Position 6 was a "6" which indicated an "S" series vehicle, which usually indicated it was a Crossfire. Seemed kind of redundant because Position 5 indicated whether it was LHD (N) or RHD (P) Crossfire version. If the car was assembled for international markets, then this position indicated transmission type (C = manual; E = AutoStick). (Much more logical) Position 7 was body style (conv = 5; coupe = 9). Keep in mind I'm referencing a 2007 Model Year VIN breakdown. With the earlier models, including SRT6's, there probably was another legend to follow. |

Re: Decoding x-fire VIN
Position 6= model option 5 = Base or SE, 6 = Limited & 7 = SRT-6
