5th and LAST Chrysler Corp. product

2005 Dodge Magnum RT Rwd 4dr Wagon (5.7L 8cyl 5A)

Initially, I loved this car but honestly how many of all the cars that have ever been made are terrible from day one. There are so many problems, that have nothing to do with operator error, like the windows regulator, headlights that either don't work or flicker and a shifter lever that was made so cheaply that apparently it is just short of recall, the list goes on and on. This car had so much potential, but the shoddy (and overpaid at $75 an hour) workmanship along with inferior parts combine to outweigh any positives or potential for greatness this car had.

Dodge Magnum- Top notch quality and fun

In 50 years of driving, I've owned a lot of new cars from all price ranges. This Dodge Magnum exhibits the best overall quality of any vehicle, foreign or domestic, that I have ever purchased. It combines great looks, great performance, and solid quality. I waited for GM to come out with something like this vehicle and they never even came close, so my next new car in a few years will likely be another Dodge Magnum, probably the SRT. With the Magnum, American made cars are again fun to drive.

Better than my 745i

What an excellent car. I have gone from an $80K+ car to the Magnum RT AWD and I am not looking back. The car is fun to drive and hauls the mail. I never thought I would fall in love with a station wagon. Go ahead and by a BMW - I will love seeing you in my rear view mirror.

I love it. The best car that I have ever owned. Excellent handling, comfort and looks! I do have to say that most of the looks come from men. Women are not as taken with the car.

Wow, what an impressive car. Very European in styling and handling. The cargo functionality is awesome; I can fit anything in the back of that thing. The gas mileage for the Hemi is nice; I got 21 miles/gal on my last fill-up; better than many 6-bangers. People talk to me all the time about the car-at the gas station-store at work-"how's the Magnum?" they ask; like its a member of the family. Hehe
