Overview & Reviews

The popular Dodge Magnum remains essentially unchanged, but bright trim on the SXT's grille, doors and interior is new. The SXT now comes with standard foglights, and both the SXT and RT now have an optional rear-seat DVD player that flips up from the center console. Eighteen-inch wheels are now optional on the SXT and 17-inch machined aluminum wheels are offered on rear-wheel-drive versions. Later in the model year, the SXT's four-speed automatic transmission will be replaced with a five-speed unit.

• Aggressively handsome wagon body style, powerful Hemi V8, quiet ride, roomy interior, lots of safety features, available all-wheel drive.

• Sluggish acceleration with base V6, too much hard plastic interior trim.

  Magnum R/T, we love it! - 2006 Dodge Magnum
  By shortc4c777 - July 24 - 7:51 pm

  We absolutly love our new Magnum! The ride, performance, interior, sound system are all very good. Ours came with 20in. wheels, and it rides better than I expected. It is also the quietest (interior wise) car I have ever driven. I have no regrets in buying this car, I may go back & purchase a 300 or a Charger. I may even wait for the Challenger!

  Great room - 2006 Dodge Magnum
  By Russell B. - July 16 - 4:50 pm

  I had a 2004 Ford F-150 5.4L V8. I traded it in for the 2006 Magnum, and the two things that I was worried about was leg room and fuel economy. My truck was great with interior space, but with gas hitting $3.00 per gallon, and me having to drive over 100 round trip to work, I needed something better for fuel. I was a little put off on the Magnum, but the leg room sold me. There is almost as much leg room as my truck, and even though I get the same mileage on fuel, it cost me 1/2 has much to fill up.

  Grocery Getter with an Attitude - 2006 Dodge Magnum
  By Noah and Kristen - June 23 - 10:22 pm

  We bought our new Magnum three weeks ago and I have been in love with it ever since. The weekend after we bought it, we drove it to Nashville and averaged 27 MPG. The power out of our 3.5L is amazing. It is nothing to bark the tires at a light or around a corner. Now that I got rid of my old beater, my daughter always wants to ride in Daddys car.

  2006 SXT Magnum is Awesome! - 2006 Dodge Magnum
  By T. Smith - June 21 - 5:11 pm

  My "Maggie" is the best vehicle I have ever owned or driven! Its so comfortable to drive and ride in and the Boston Acoustics are wonderful! The 6x CD player is a blast to load and listen to all my favorite music back to back. I zoom my sunroof back and turn up my tunes and enjoy the ride!

  Glad I bought it! - 2006 Dodge Magnum
  By CrazyArrow - June 21 - 12:42 pm

  I went to the dealership to buy an SUV and drove off in a Magnum! It was love at first sight and Im a big guy so room was very important- definitely no complaints here. I have definitely upgraded from my minivan and no longer feel like Ive given up on life! :) I definitely do not need a Hemi, but am a bit disappointed with the 2.7. It has enough "umph" to get the job done, but with nowhere near the performance of the 3.5 or Hemi.

  Gotta love this wagon! - 2006 Dodge Magnum
  By Steve S. - June 13 - 12:34 am

  Have had the vehicle for only a few weeks. Had to sell 05 Mustang and go practical. The Magnum gave me practicality and fun! Really nice car, drives very well, nice and tight. Love the low cut look, very aggressive. My wife really likes it too. Can actually be cool in a wagon.

  Great! - 2006 Dodge Magnum
  By coolrider - June 2 - 5:29 pm

  Excellent vehicle, 5.7 Hemi (need I say more?) MPG has been up to 29.5 highway with the engine management system of shutting down cylinders at cruise. Fun to drive factor is off the scale. Self sealing tires (18in) have been a life saver. It will even pull my 3500lb. motorcycle trailer smoothly with its hidden hitch and and self leveling suspension system. It sure is more pc than an SUV.

  SRT-8 Magnum - 2006 Dodge Magnum
  By Charlie - May 31 - 6:19 am

  Not only is the 2006 Magnum a beautiful design it also has the awesome power that Dodge used to have back in the late 60s early 70s. You have the modern luxuaries of a Mercedez Benz and the "holy cow" power of a 1970 Hemi Roadrunner. My SRT Magnum came with GPS, Sirius Satelite Radio, all leather interior, (Gray on Black-Standard for SRT8) steering wheel remotes, sunroof and digital gauges with white face gauges. The new Hemi 6.1 liter is just as appealing to look at as the rest of the car. I do feel that the exhuast could have been a bit throatier, however you do hear the engine well at 6000 rpms. The ride and handling is smooth and confortable. All this for $40,000. I did well.

  What an engine - 2006 Dodge Magnum
  By Rx:MagnumQd - May 24 - 10:19 pm

  Wow! This is one incredibly fast car. It replaced my Magnum RT, already a fast car. This one simply flies. The whole car has been upgraded from the suspension to the transmission to the brakes. It feels like a complete package. Handles suprisingly well for a 4300lb car. Seats are terrific, way better that the stock RT seats. Driving the car is an exercise in right foot restraint. The barritone soundtrack that comes with a quick jab of the throttle is worth the price of admission alone. The thrust that comes with this right foot exercise is very impressive indeed. Remember, this car has more horsepower than any Corvette (except Z06) produced in the last 25 years. Overall, a blast to drive!
