2006 Dodge Magnum SXT review from North America
"Bold and Stealth..."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Car has been excellent.
General comments?
More room inside than the Highlander. More power than the Highlander. Reliability is yet to be proven on this platform.
A close relative to the charger, 300 and possibly the up and coming Challenger... All new design for late 2004/Present. This vehicle is powerful and practical. Shared power trains. Excellent parts availability. Daimler-Chrysler group has to hit a home run with this new line-up. It looks like they are on their way. Notwithstanding, only time will tell.
Accepting of hard acceleration.
Five link rear suspension and fully independent.
Five speed tiptronic.
Would be nice to have a 6 speed manual option.
Four wheel large disks and 17 inch wheels with optional 18's. You have to love this car!
