Just got my new Car and Driver and was checking out the new Dodge Magnum. *****in!! Chop top look, Dodge RAM Grill, 20" wheels, 430 hp ! and 0-60 in 4.7 all for 33K. Interesting comments about how Chrysler used Mercedes' expertise in rear wheel drive technology, since Chrysler has been desinging their cars based on Front wheel drive technology for the last 20 years. If I had to drive a station wagon (although their not calling it a wagon) this would be it!

2004 E 4matic StationWagon
Chrysler Pacifica
I am dying to see the Pacifica, which is said to incorporate MB's 4matic technology into a U.S. wagon that looks really nice from the few photos I've seen to date. (The car was supposed to be shown at the Washington, D.C. auto show, but it wasn't. ?)

Damn, that Magnum SRT-8 is awesome! I am hoping for a AWD V8 model - the 345HP normally aspirated one will do for me. It will replace my 2001 Explorer Sport Trac 4X4. I hate SUV's!

That is one hot wagon. How do you think it will compare to the Chrysler Pacifica?

I like the anti-SUV, anti-MiniVan concept. The SRT-8 with 430HP will be close to the Audi RS6, E55 'wagon on steriods' category.

Chrysler and Dodge owners would be pround to say their car is based on a Mercedes platform. However, GST owners would hate the fact that their GST is based on the Pacifica.
