I got a chance to buy, after looking for several yrs., A 08 SR V-6 L I thought it would be sluggish and under powered. As per reports. But I found reports were just BIASED against it. Excellent milage 18 intown,245 out on RT. 40 in Alb.,n.m. it is a WONDETFUL car to drive. Very smooth over rough RDS., LOW MAINTAINANCE cost. No leaks,or trans. sluggishness either.it hasNO AFTERMARKET ADDONS either. I am 6ft. And can sit very comfortably in rear as well as frt. What a eye catcher . Have owned 4 yrs. for more than I paid. Refussed all. I won't sell it. Like it VERY very much. The Dodge dealer agrees that they are a truely GOOD CAR.He sevices several and has had NO problems that are in listings of what to look for before buying one. Mine has 165,276mi.s and has Only 1prob. Was fuel gadge. was sporatic. But can not find why for 3yrs. But never tan out. I just fill after 300mls. According to dealer. I would HIGHLY RECOMMENT IT.

I read every review about the Magnum I could find before buying it as I was concerned about how the AWD would perform and if the 6 cyl was enough power. I live in NY but found the car in Iowa since they didn't make many '08's trying to find a loaded SXT AWD was difficult. I am thrilled I bought this car. The AWD works great in the snow and the 3.5 engine moves the car around very well. I am more pleased with the car and the performance then I expected to be. Right now these cars are a great buy and I highly recommend it. Don't be afraid of going with the 3.5 V6, it handles the weight of the car fine, it does not feel underpowered. Blinds spots are not that bad either.

I purchased my 2008 SXT AWD 3.5L Dodge Magnum around the time Dodge was claiming bankruptcy - at the time I thought I was walking away with a great deal, now that I have had the car for a year I realize that this was probably the best vehicle purchase I have made, or ever will make. This car has it all. It is roomy, yet compact. It is versatile, agile, and swift on its feet. It sports an edgy masculine look as well as a classy interior design. I like its bold look and smooth drive. I purchased the 3.5 L V6 engine and I wouldn't recommend anything less than that. Overall, this is an amazing car and if you find one I'd recommend snapping it up.
i love my magnum

BAD BATCH

I downgraded from a dodge ram hemi to save gas when I bought this 08 magnum that only had 12k on it. Not even a month after I bought the car, it started to shut off in the middle of driving. I took it back to the dealer about 4 times and the computer never recorded anything. They looked at me like a dumb lady and all they did was reflash the computer. The tranny makes loud clunky noises when accelerating and slowing down and it bucks when it shouldn't. Car stations change from FM to AM on it's own. The car shakes sometimes like it has a carburetor, which I know it doesn't have but I do know what it feels like when an old car wants to shut off. Maybe I got a bad car from the batch.
