IT'S OVER;
The affair is over I presume. My former associate bought a new Magnum and seems to like it. He had a Dodge 4X truck before.

Sorry, not for us to decide for him/her. Those of us that want to keep ours, no convincing is necessary.

Only if its an 08 SRT-8. Since they have ceased production of the Magnums this model will be even rarer than Marauders.:twocents:

Just don't compare a stock MM to a stock SRT8 hemi powered car, you will be sorry... the SRT8 cars are FAST stock. One of those will shame the MM stock for stock, big time.

:lol: How many magnums have they made? Even SRT's there are lots more than there are marauders left.

I personally dont see anything appealing about the magnum. To each his own.

There is a huge difference between an SRT8 hemi and regular hemi

I hope its more comfortable than the police version of the Charger I've been using for the past week while my Cheby is fixed.

Obviously if it's an SRT I would probably do it. If it's an SXT/RT, then no.

As sad as I would be to see a Marauder get replaced by a Dodge I agree SRT or nothing!

There is? :dunno:
Look the same in my rear view mirror... :banana2:
On that note, I kinda like the Magnum, seems like a car with both power and good utility. I opted for Marauder land myself but did look at them, and can understand the allure. But I also personally chose the MM and glad I did.

One of my people owns a AWD Hemi Magnum with every possible option. He has always been a Mopar guy. He really loves the car. I've posted here before that if Chrysler was dealing on the Magnum when it 1st came out I'd be driving one now. They weren't and I love my Marauder that I bought a few months later.

'04 Black Marauder and '06 Midnight Pearl Blue Magnum R/T, I have the best of both worlds and wouldn't trade. We love them both, but the Magnum is faster, and the MM has a DR tune.

But, the redesigned 08 body with the SRT8 package will be even more rare than Marauders, probably less than 2,000 made considering they killed production after only 3 months. You can't even find an 08 Magnum of any trim level in SE Michigan anymore, they are all gone.

I do!!
'04 Black Marauder & '07 Charger R/T with the R/T R package in Steel Blue Metallic.
The Charger will take the MM off the line but I think the MM run it down......

Looking at the posted 1/4 times the 2 cars are close. Any given race would come down to the driver.
The Mag prob has a slight edge.
