Favorite feature: |
HEMI! |
Least favorite feature: |
Would be even better with a paddle shift feature on the steering wheel, but not a big deal as the shifter is within easy rach. |
Advice to buyer: |
Test drive this vehicle hard and if you live where there is snoe then get the AWD. |
Detailed review: |
THIS CAR IS AMAZING. I bought the Magnaum after driving an SUV for the past 8 years. This vehicle puts my old SUV to shame. The optional onboard compter is worth the money and you cannot put a price on the steering wheel controls. I took a friend of mine for a ride and he almost got sick when the 340 HP and 390 ft lbs torque engine stuck him hard into the passenger seat. It handles better than the Mustang I use to drive and the AWD is amazing (faster by 2/10 of a second than the normal rear wheel drive RT). this thing purrs when you hit the gas and peaople cannot help but stare at the unique lines in this cars design. The heated seats are great durring these cold New Hampshire evenings and the climate control is worth the money. Gas mileage beats my old SUV getting about 20 MPG while still hitting it at the red lights. My boss always raves about his Lincoln LS V8, I can't wait to embarras him on the drive home. Overall this is an amazing car and well worth the money. Don't waste the money on a Lexus, BMW or Merceds, this puts them all to shame! |
