I don't like the auto door locking.

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
The car performs better than my XK8 Jaguar. This Magnum R/T is a sports car disquised as a staion wagon..

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
I have owned my Magnum for a year now and continue to enjoy it more and more each day. It performs very well, rides great, and sits proudly in parking lots. I am glad I bought the R/T. The HEMI comands respect.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Magnum?
This wagon drives like a well engineered luxury car. With a 5.7 Hemi engine, this wagon can surprise the unsuspected chalenger. Has more room for cargo than most small SUVs and the lift gate opens wide enough to load large boxed items without damaging the trim.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Magnum?
With all of the room inside some people might have trouble reaching buttons on the dash. Having the radio controls on the steering wheel are a must. Another must is all wheel drive and traction control in northern driving areas. This wagon doesnt go in the snow very well without it.

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
The great looks and custom styling turn heads everywere. With a 5.7 Hemi you will have enough power to get by any peski slow driver on two lane highways. So comfortable and so much room inside that the kids wont have room to reach echother in the back seat.

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
This car drives like a high priced luxury vehicle. People cant help but look at it and ask questions about it.A lot of thought has gone into the engineering of this car/wagon. The brake system, the all wheel drive, traction control. Very comfortable and powerful with a 5.7 Hemi. Gas milage isnt as bad as you might think.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Magnum?
It's Stand out agressive styling that dodge puts into all of it's vehicles. Gives a whole new meaning to the wagon. The magnum is all about muscle ,even the base2.7 liter is eager for a quick gallop to sixty. The interior is very masculine with a definite muscle/sports car feel. Makes people loyal to any car brand peek inside with envy.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Magnum?
Not that the base 2.7 isn't quick enough but why make the horsepower 190 if you're going to come that close to 200, just make it 200.

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
Very fast and sporty, interior is straight forward but relates a feeling of muscle and power. Really fast and sporty, a lot of bang for your buck. all said and done it makes the wagon cool again, hands down.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Magnum?
Handling is #1. Couldn't be smoother. Space inside is #2 - everyone gets a great seat and a great view and ca take 3 adults' luggage to the airport. #3 is that body style - unique and sharp. #4 is the great bluish color of the interior dash at night.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Magnum?
Did anyone consider how hard it would be to hook a childseat seatbelt with the armrest down? Also, cup holders put larger cups right under drivers' elbow. How about automatic rear latch opener?

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
I have been driving a Pontiac Sunfire (2) since 1996. With my kids grown, a sporty little 2 door was all I needed. Then came the grandkids. The came my mother and her wheelchair. There was NO WAY in a Sunfire. I love the Magnum's look! It handles as easily as the Sunfire tho I have some concerns about winter driving in Ohio wtih a rear- wheel. I can't say eough abou the room. I've ridden in the backseat and I wouldn't hesitate to go cross-country in it. Gas mileage 20 mpg city and fill up was a real shock to me. The absolute selling point was the pedals coming to me (at 5'4") and ease of handling. It gets a lot of stares and questions. I first said it when I bought it. Love at first sight!

The engine sound could have a litle deeper rumble. When accelerating it could be a little louder.

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
AThe Magnum RT is a hot rod car with the ride of a luxury car. Excellent acceleration. Runs well in snow with the ESP traction on. Has plenty of room while still being sporty. Stereo system very nice for a factory installed unit. A pleasure to drive.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Dodge Magnum?
The Hemi is fun if you own a gas station. Quiet, handles good. Runs great on road. .

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Magnum?
Improve the interior appointments. It's cheap looking. Too plain. Tune the Hemi to get better mileage in town. Wheels should be chrome not polished

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
A great running car. The gas mileage in town is a little weak. The interior is cheap looking. It should have some wood or something to spiff it up. The ride is a little stiff. It makes the CD jump when you hit a small bump.

Love it all. Power for a v-6 is just awesome. I have the 3.5.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Magnum?
The turn signal indicators should be in a different spot, hard to see. And the front coffee cup holders should be placed in front of the shift lever.

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
I find this car to be all the ads say that it would be. I normally don't get excited about cars. I used to sell them. This car is fun to drive, good on gas, and very comfortable. Try it and you will buy it!

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Dodge Magnum?
Padded arm rests, lower windows to adjust to arm and neck height.

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
All in all this is a great car. There are a few things that we don't like. The size and cargo is excellent. We packed our house in it for the evacuation of hurricaine Rita. The car drove great in 28 hours of traffic , never ran out of gas. It has large gas tank and great fuel economy. The things we dislike are that the air conditioner blows hot air at you when you first turn it on. This is annoying when it is hot out. The other things are that the arm rests are extremely hard and hurt your elbow. The windows are high so when you hang your arm out the window it is at an uncomfortable angle. But most of the things we love about this car.

2006 Dodge Magnum Review:
love the power of the v8 Hemi. It performs better than I expected. Lots of room, very comfortable. The sound system is also great.
