2006 Dodge Magnum User Reviews

Pros

Looks great, Plenty of room for the family and Yes its got a Hemi

Cons

The location of the cruise control and every Mustang punk wants to race.

What more could you ask for, this car does everything. Its fast, has plenty of room for wife and two kids plus all the stuff they bring along on trips. For those that whine about gas mileage what do you expect from a 340hp V-8. In combined city/hwy I am getting 20.5 mpg, more than my truck(15.8) or suv(16) and not far off of my co-workers Honda Accord at 24 with a V6....read morehide

this car is so dashey. i love thic car. so this is the great car .

Pros

Great ride, excellent performance. Handels very well and styling is second to none.

Cons

The fuel economy is not quite as stated but then again I have a lead foot.

I bought my brand new 2005 Magnum SXT AWD in April 2006. As stated above I love everything about the vehicle from outside to inside. It is actually a very practical car from several standpoints. The AWD is perfect in our rainy and snowy Wisconsin climate. Another advantage it that the seats fold down and provide allot of useful space. The tailgate lifts straight up - which from my standpoint allows for larger packages to be inserted. This is not your standard station wagon! This is a MAN Wagnon with great looks, performance, and practicability.

l'm the cool caucasian with the Cool Vanilla Magnum....read morehide

Pros

vrooooooom!!!!!!

Cons

gulllllp

This is my first american car in several years, and I think i am in love. The company did a real nice job integrating performance with creature comfort. This is a serious car, fast, smooth, safe and very comfortable. The awd with a hemi is an awesome combination that leaves little to be desired in the performance department. Great car....read morehide

Pros

Great engine, brakes, handling, stereo, and looks.

Cons

In town fuel economy.

I have loved cars since I was very young. I just missed out on the muscle car era, but always wanted a car with performance. Ironically, my first car was a 1967 VW Bug. I could get 10 feet of rubber in first gear and chirp second. After that, I owned vans for reasons I won't fully disclose. I had a 1967 Firebird that came to an unfortunate end.
During early family mode, I had SUV's for practical reasons. Finally,
it was time to get a car for me! This car can probably beat 90% of the cars on the road, while doing it safely. I don't drive the car hard(most of the time). My 80 year old parents with disabilities can get in and out of it easier than their Buick LeSabre. It is really a large car that handles like a sports car and rides as well as a Mercedes. Where it really shines is in its ability to let an experienced driver control his destiny. In NYC and vicinity, you wouldn't believe how many drivers are really jerks. On numerous occaisions, I have had to use the power, brakes, and steering to get out of the way of aggressive and incompetent drivers. Highly recommended for us guys. Don't let your woman try to steal it from you....read morehide

Pros

Good Look

Cons

Have had nothing but problems with vehicle and its manufacturer

Have had alignment problems since 6/04 when vehicle was purchased (my vehicle is a 2005 model). Has been to dealer many times only to get an excuse of "road crown sensitivity". Well this "road crown sensitivty" has led to worn front suspension and a new set of tires at only 30,000 miles. This is only to mention my major problem there have been many others ie; Liftgate open light comes on for no reason, headlights flicker or turn off while driving, drivers seat repaired at 398 miles, engine has made clicking noises since 200 miles which dealer says is normal, only to mention a few. There have been many documented cases of this right pull issue and its supposed fix, I only wish I would have done my research BEFORE I bought this vehicle. Would not recommend this vehicle....read morehide

Noise from front end. Found out tires and rotors could be problem ONLY after tires and rotors no longer covered. These covered only for 12 months not standard 3/36.

Pros

smooth ride, lots of room, great looking, fun to drive

Cons

can't think of a thing yet

I love this car!! since it came out it reminded me of the Nomad and I have always wanted one of those..

I have the 3.5L V6 and couldnt be happier! I've had mine a month and just can't stop driving it. I do sales for a living and I have to tell you BEST sales car I have ever had! This one's a keeper!

Thanks Dodge for bringing back the mopar we all love...read morehide

Pros

Looks, Looks, Looks & VERY Practical!

Cons

Only 1- 2.7 v-6 could use a few more horses-

This car is absolutely awesome! We just purchased an 06 SE and when you compare with other vehicles, you can not beat this car for value. Dodge has outdone themselves with this vehicle. The ride is amazing, the backseat passenger leg room is unreal. I am 6'-2" and a big guy, my wife and 3 kids can all go on a trip and still look really cool doing so! If you are considering this car, do yourself a favor and stop, go buy it now and enjoy it!...read morehide
