WOW. I'm even more impressed with the Magnum than I was with the 300. I have zero reservations about the looks of the Magnum- I forgave the 300 its awkward front end because the rest of the car is so nice, but the Magnum is just a beauty all-around. The one I've got is just a 3.5L SXT, but it doesn't embarass itself. The quiet is amazing. I still want to check out a Hemi, but this is a car I find that I could be quite happy with even with only a 3.5. I can't imagine they'll sell many with the
2.7, though. The transmission shifts beautifully- I can't imagine why they feel a need to put the Mercedes tranny behind the Hemi. It could only be a step down.When I first sat in the car, my initial reaction was that visibility was going to be horrible. But it turns out to be far, far better than most cars I've driven in the past 5 years. The rear windows are small, but just perfectly placed. Very little in the way of a blind spot.
