lol yup

and at least the tiptronic tends to be found on performance-oriented bmw's and porches, and has an OK (not great) shift response time.

autosticks by and large are a joke. you flick it and like a second or two later the gear finally changes. pathetic, why bother?

 

[ninjahood]

there you go..da review for da magnum when it dropped.

and at da end of da day..da magnum is faster then anything /toyota/honda/nissan in its class...talkin about bite

ya ain't even got teeth talkin bad bout da magnum R/T

 

[ninjahood]

and these days most of da performance cars that come automatic tend to shift at optimum levels, so its actually faster then a manual..check CTS-V, da newcamaro, etc.

my question:

does anyone on NT own a dodge magnum?

my answer requests
pros?
cons?
SE SXT R/T SRT-8?
do you like it?
hows it ride?
and the year?

i only ask how it rides because ive yet to test drive one also, im only 19 so dont tell me to get the hemi..believe me if i could i would

im lookin into a sxt
please and thank you

they are good cars, also dont bother getting anything other than the srt-8.

 

[mr monday niight]

look @ the numbers man


The magnum and charger are heavy cars. 400+hp doesn't mean !%@! when the car is over 2 tons.

 

[ninjahood]

and da problem wit that is? i got a fast car thats spacious and can keep up wit a car thats smaller in size.


homie can be cool wit da R/T...345HP is good money.

 

[mr monday niight]

Problem is, it's slow... you with 345 and me with 250 and i'm keeping up with you? do you not see the problem here?

Crazy how the lazy e-class Magnum transmission that isn't geared toward performance edged out the 469HP AMG six speed e-class wagon in everycatagory.
Your hate for these cars has you sounding wild salty...just saying anything.

Two weekends out of the month I do drive a car with acres of plasitc. But I'm sitting on Suede/Leather performance seats all behind a 426HPmonster with the option to haul enough wood to build a deck. But my two honda accords are full of plastic as well.

If it makes you feel any better, this is the interior of the other weekend driver. Enough palstic in there for you?

Bought it 7 years ago as a daily driver. No problems besides a water pump, inline six is bulletproof. Love it so much that I kept it for theweekends.
Reliability hasn't been an issue.
