  • Excellent - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    The car handles like a dream. I took it on a trip to Virginia in early Dec. I had absolutly no problems. I think I helped to sell at least one Hemi to a trucker and his wife at a truck stop. They saw the vehicle at the pump, came over to me and wanted to see the engine and the other things about the car. They said they could not find a HEMI at any dealers where they shopped. As they walked back to thier truck I overheard the wife say, "Well I guess we are going to trade our old station wagon." I hope I sold one for you.

    As others have said my 1st Dodge like the Hemi power handles very well a little choppy on rough roads But feels well built, very solid car !

  • Its ultra cool, and so much more! - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    I love this car. The whole family loves it. Were tall people and we ride in pure luxurious comfort. No more scrunched up knees! I could live in it, happily. Getting on the freeway is so much fun. I gotta be real conscious of my speed in this baby, the Hemi appeals to the speed demon in me. Very comfortable, and adjustable seats. The paint "brilliant black pearl" is beautiful! The stereo system is lovely. I really like the steering wheel& the big console, I can easily stuff my purse in it. :) Its a pretty big car, but it doesnt feel like it when I drive it. Its a smooth ride and hugs curves like a dream. My 70y/o neighbor is selling his Honda and getting a Magnum.

  • Dodge has hit a homerun - 2005 Dodge Magnum

    Yeah its not a Hemi, but my Magnum has plenty of performance. It handles as if it was a sports car. And Ive never owned a new car that commanded ongoing accolades. Magnum is the benchmark auto for station wagons and four door sedans for this decade. Im 6 feet tall and our friends in the rear seat are not sitting with their knees higher than their head. This is the crossover car of the year

  • LOVE MY RIDE - 2005 Dodge Magnum

    I have found that my new vehicle is so much fun to drive my wife and I fight over who is going to drive. I have found one thing I dont care for where the cruse control is located now. It should be back in the stering wheel.

  • Loads O fun - 2005 Dodge Magnum

    I have the car with the 250 HP V-6 and it has ample power particularly considering the gas mileage. The car handles well and I have yet to make the tires chirp on a clover leaf even at 60 MPH. I think it is one of the best cars I have ever had. The ride is great and I have driven it for fairly long distances with no driver fatigue or sore spots. The leather seats with heaters are great. The car ride is smooth and quiet. I would reccommend this car to any one.

    I have always owned sports cars. I had no need to worry about the choice I made when I bought the Magnum RT. It has a great look, plenty of room, and has more than enough power when I need it!! I recommend this car to everyone who wants something with room and class.

  • Highest Recommendation - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    Ive had my Magnum RT nearly 3 months now, and love it. Everyone stares at it and many ask about it and want to know how I like it. Its roomy, gets good mileage for a high performance vehicle, and handles great for its size. Its a superb replacement for my SUV. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants/needs a vehicle with some room, performance, handling, looks and descent mileage, all at a resonable price. My two thumbs go up for this "sports tourer". I enjoy driving it so much that I get Magnumb!!

    Design of Magnum is great. I got the first Magnum delivered into Knoxville,Tn. on 05/26/2004. I had ordered the car on 02/07/04. I have never had as many coments as I have had on this new car and I have owned several new cars.I love driving the new Magnum and I have had only 2 problems with it. It has a right hand pull and high speed vibration. They have came out with a bolt kit for the cradle or K member, to give a caster and camber adjustment to eleminate the right pull and load balance of the tires and wheels fixed the vibration. The car is fun and powerful to drive and sure turns heads. Yes it does have a HEMI.
