Magnum!!

Just got the new issue of Car & Driver, and on the cover is the baddest-ass station wagon ever. Dodge Magnum. What a kickass piece of automotive engineering. i can't wait to see one on the street. i can really see how a lot of people are going to see this car and just think "geeze.. that's one ugly-ass station wagon" but I dunno.. it sort of speaks to me. I like it a lot. Plus it's 430 hp RWD..

I love it when you can see a car's hood in front of you, it makes me want to hit people.

Not sure if its the baddest sw ever. Lotus put out a Re-badged/engineered Ford SW in Europe about 10 years ago. Did 0-60 in 4.1 seconds and topped out close to 160. Not bad for a SW esp. in the early 90s. Lets just wait and see if Dodge ruins it with cheap parts and that wonderful Product of Mexico build quality. The design is quite solid though but it really should be offered with AWD as well. That'll work on getting people away from SUDeathtraps.

Well, the jury's still out on whether or not the car is actually built or designed well. It's styled well, I'll give them that. But I agree with Bob - let's just see what the actual product turns out like.

My guess is that nobody will care. It's novel, so who cares if it frequently starts on fire or causes 'loss of driver control.'

And the best part is . . . it's a freakin' HEMI!!!!!!

BTW, I don't think Dodge calls it a station wagon. Too declassé.

Actually, I take offense to this.

Now I ask you questions:

1. did I force you to download Ogre dance?
2. When did I ever mention hooters? Or anything girl related?
3. Have I ever said domestic cars are superior to foreign cars?
4. When have I made a sexist remark about anyone?

Why do you always suppose people are talking about you? Do you have a guilty conscience?

And have you ever thought that maybe if there is someone talking about you there might be a good reason?

okay, two things:

1) ca$h, I was backing your ass up. I think it's ridiculious how people get carried away on this board.

2) is this guy boring you? come talk to me, I'm from outer space..
