I sat in a Magnum once, and was amazed at how shitty that interior was. Still, I love them, it’s only too bad they aren’t still around today. The Pennsylvania State Police apparently bought a few, and they don’t look too shabby.

I love cars that are really not very good, but yet one still loves them anyway. This is how Lamborghini subsisted for 50 years.

It’s a early mid 2000s Chrysler product, what were you expecting on the inside?

I’d contend Lamborghini was better back then than now. At least they still stood for something.

Solution?
Buy a Magnum and a Chrysler 300.
Swap the (slightly better) interior and front clip on to the Magnum.
Profit?

Chrysler sold them that way. With optional diesel engines. In Europe, obviously.
Note the (mandatory) rear fog lights in the bumper.

I saw a PA Statey Magnum yesterday for the first time. I’ve been browsing them in the classifieds lately and noticed they have gotten very cheap. You can pick up a Hemi with under 100k for about 6-7k if you do some digging.

Yep, I saw one while I was living in Prague. I’d think a 300 SRT8 wagon would be pretty neat.

A friend of mine just got his grandpa’s 2005. He said he loves it but he wishes he still had the Pilot.

Worst car I’ve ever driven in my life. Had one for a 1000 mile work trip. Awful. Completely awful.

I agree. Here is my 06 SRT8 this summer on Rt66. 6600 miles in 2 weeks, best road trip car ever. Passing power for days, comfortable ride, averaged 21mpg over the whole trip. Whats not to love?
Yes the interior isn’t the greatest, but a lot of that is fixed with the R/T’s and the SRT’s. Great seats, and with a new headunit (Pioneer 4100NEX for me) its updates the worst part. Never plan on getting rid of her.

Like what, throwing its very wealthy occupants into a hedge then exploding on the tow truck back? Just kidding. Although that probably happened somewhere.

Yes. Exactly. It’s separates the truly dedicated from the posers. Via death.

Their slogan should be, “Inefficient with gas, efficient with premeditated homicide.”

The Erie, PA police have a blacked out, unmarked Magnum cruiser. It’s imtimidating as hell but looks really good
