Should just be a Dodge Magnum with a 300 front, unless it's europe.

In Europe the Dodge Magnum was always sold as the Chrysler 300 Touring.

you have your answer now. The car looks so much better with the 300 front clip. I've always thought the Magnum looked very... industrial...

300 wagons are fairly common in Finland. At least compared to regular 300s. One of my friends has one 300 wagon with a diesel engine.

Even if it's Europe, it's a Magnum with a 300 front....

I rather enjoy my industrial looking front end. That said, if I were to do a 300 swap, it would have to be for the 2015 300C front end. The latest 300C nose is absolutely the best.

I simply do not believe that's a 5.7L motor outrunning that M6 so quickly. Not without a lot of extra motivation....Off the line, sure, but not for that long of a run. Besides, 630HP? It's got to have a supercharger + NOS or just not be a 5.7L, because the 5.7L has weak valve springs and would not be able to take that abuse. A 6.1 or 6.4L however will do that all day long.

Like others have said...in Europe there was a 300c Touring. You could even get it with a diesel!!!

I think most were. I see 300Cs occasionally, probably more wagons than sedans, usually as taxis. Probably because they dropped in value rather quickly. Taxis tend to be diesels, for obvious reasons.

Only those <2011 models though. The 2011+ models, now badged as Lancias, are nowhere to be seen here.

The Magnum was really a 300 wagon, that's why the doors and other sheet metal are basically the same as the 300 and nothing like the Charger. It was a Dodge in the US and a Chrysler 300 Touring overseas (in markets where the Dodge brand wasn't sold, "Touring" was used as the name for the station wagon body style as opposed to a trim level).

I haven't seen to many 300Cs as taxis over here. But when they were new I lived in Stuttgart, so more Mercs as taxis and Merc execs driving the 300s.

I have seen only two of them as Lacnias and both were rental cars.
