2005 Dodge Magnum Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Car is extremely powerful and the handling and brakes are amazing, the 9 to 60 time shows just how powerful and fun this car can be. But this car is also a great family car with a very elegant look with a lot of space for luggage and very spacious and confortable leather seats for long trips

Love this car - holds a ton, safe & comfy, eats rice with ease. Surprisingly reliable for a Dodge. Has nice, solid feel. I always get picked to drive the "gang"; back seat room is excellent. Interior is bland but functional. Gas mileage is all dependent on how heavy your foot is.

love this fast wagon! This thing with pipes and an intake is faster than a lot of cars out there and the sound system is terrific. My favorite thing about it is its sweet looks and killer ride. Keep it clean and going to shows soon

I love my car! You definitly get looks when you rev that HEMI up! Plenty of room, can haul quite abit for the size with or without the rear seats down. I would highly recommed the Magnum. I just hate they quit making them!

Distinctive looks, particularly in black; looks like a hearse (in a good way). Plenty of pickup even in SE trim. Solid construction. Great legroom front and rear. Plenty of storage/hauling space behind the rear seats. Black interior looks sharp. Great driver's adjustable lumbar support. Chopped retro look. Too bad they are discontinuing the Magnum wagon.

We purchased this car when we found out we were having a second baby. The Magnum was perfect for us because we could haul our kids, a double stroller, plus groceries with no problems! We went with the RT because of the Hemi =) If we had to have a family car, it was going to be a powerful one. The gas mileage wasn't as good as most cars, but it's a Hemi V8! It does have variable valve timing, so when we were on the highway, setting the cruise control really lowered the gas consumption. It's also great for long trips. It easily carried all 4 of us, luggage, large birthday presents, and a 70lb Boxer.

Love our Magnum, will be buying an SRT8 Magnum next. This car is a head-turner and I love the speed, and control. The AutoStick is nice and convenient =) Drag racing from the stop light is always fun because they think you'll lose since it's a wagon. WRONG!!! Lots of space, comfortable on long trips, 30mpg on long trips as well. Love it, will buy another. Have changed nothing but the tires & oil. Soon to install the Predator tuner for even more power & fun.

The performance is awesome. Estimated 1/4 mile time with performance add- ons is 13.9 sec. Now weighs 4060 lbs after an exhaust swap, estimated 357 hp and 410 tq. Despiite the power, it has functional room capacity, fit for traveling. It would be better to be a manual. No problems with the car except every so often I get a cylinder stall where it's not running on all eight cylinders. Appearance is awesome, the interior could be way better. Gas mileage is brilliant with the size of the engine and car. It is extremely fun to drive despite being an automatic.

I Love EVERYTHING about this car! It is a definite head-turner. It has plenty of room inside, plenty of power under the hood, and it's fun to mod! I only wish Dodge had not decided to stop producing them. Well I guess discontinuing them makes them that much more special.

good fit and finish, excellent interior, beautiful suspension. hangs on to corners extremly well. brakes are more than enough to send contents of the car and unbuckled occupants to the front of the car. we'll see how the engine holds up. feels like a mercedes benz trans. tiny 2.7 liter engine is peppy for it's size, not for the size of the car though. plenty sufficient to move the car, with resonable mileage.

This is my first muscle car, and I love it. Like any North American car, it has it problems, but overall I love the look and ride. Not great on gas, but what do you expect with a 5.7 litre

The Dodge Magnum RT is the best road trip car I have ever owned! Best looking wagon on the road with its aggressive lines and Hemi V8 rumble that sounds great when you put your foot into to it. Overall high marks!

This was definately the car for me. Even though it is a station wagon, when driving this car it feels like a lugsery car. I love the smooth quiet ride,and the telescopic steering. It handles very well and turns on a dime, although it is not the hemi engine it powers quit well and gets great gas milage for the size of car. About the only thing I dont like is the automatic door lock does not disengage when the car is stopped and put into park.

I don't dislike too much except for the features this model doesn't have or simply doesn't carry. I enjoy the power and possibilities the car has to offer for upgrades. I would recommend the car to friends and strangers. If they made a 2014 version, I'd buy it!!

over 130,000 miles in 4 years ... still running strong and well. Now having some issues with steering rack - needed replacing as well as shocks and struts. Nice design and SXT model gets 22 miles / gallon. Interior is basic - leather OK. Could be nicer. I like the gauges ... accurate.

This car is a built to thrill machine. The engine is a 3.5L HO 250 hp stock engine. Aftet a stage two fuel injection kit and a fuel chip, you end up with 263 hp. The car handles well, in fact, too well. My Brother in law got a ticket for goin 90 in a 65 because he didn't realize how fast he was going. The car can out perform most 4 and 6 cyl on the road, although the magnum struggles with matching v-8's. It's a very "loud" car and most people will either hate it or love it. There is no in between with this baby. If I did it all over again? RT- Hemi would be the only thing I did different.

Nothing compares to the srt 8 magnum 2005 or 2006

The car is every thing that its said to b .if u have a v 8 u have it all . Power luxury & most of all u appreciate the ride very comfortable & easy to drive.

Bought this car instead of a 2005 Mustang. More backseat room, not as many on the road, really a big comfortable sporty car with ability to haul and haul things. I couldn't get a new front door for my house into my Jeep Grand Cherokee but it slid right into the Magnum. Great stereo, I really like this car.

interior could of been dressed up a little more but overall the car is awesome

Car is great. Acceleration is great, brakes aren't bad...My only problem really is the gas mileage. Have a V6 and I try to not push on the gas so much because it will drink the gas like water. But it gets me from point A to point B without problems thus far.

great car, a real head turner, my teenage sons actually will be seen it and even ask to borrow it. No it does not have the hemi (my truck does). Good on gas, and a smooth ride. Handles great in winter.

Awsome car all around...a blast to drive..plenty of acceleration and can handel turns at highspeeds very well.

i hae liked this car since i have owned it she runs good drives great collects good attention because its unique and i have enjoyed every bit of this car, everything about this car works great no problems with it runs stops turns handling is one of the best cars i have drove i would rate it for anyone winter snow control handling is crazy good went in a ditch one tme came right out with the awd and performance together got me out so you should check it out and see what you think

With the MDS system, gas bills aren't as bad as you think.

The car is very roomy for families and trips. It's comfortable and you can fit a lot in the hatch. It's bigger so I feel safer driving it and it handles pretty good for a longer car. Even though the back windows are tinted it is still easy to see out of them

Amazing performing car, reliability mechanically is great, 110,000 miles with only a thermostat and bushing go bad, still on originalk brakes, have had the car o n the track 1/4mile in 14.9 off the showroom floor , trim is horrible, plastic breaks

this car is by far the most reliable car ive owned. ive had it for 2 years and has run like a champ with regular maintanence. it can really take a beating too. its beat srt4 neons up at the 1/4 with very little performance work done

I like everything about this car it never let me down. It can handle almost anything you throw at it. Cost of ownership goes up the v8 take 7 qts of oil. Its a blast in a open parking lot with snow. If you take good care it, it will take care of you.

The style of the low slung wagon with the 18" wheels looks fast when standing still. Once the HEMI is fired up, the car is as fast or faster than it looks. I no longer get any stop light competition, everybody just knows, I'll win.

Great car not a single complaint. If I behave I get 23 mpg. I can also get to 100 MPH really damn fast.

Only wagon that men can drive and still be respected in. This is an overall good car but the performance upgrades are highly recommended

Only thing l dont like is u can only use the key in the driver side car is a great car lots of room

Killer ride, but I have to say it has had some major transmission and oil usage issues. I wouldn't recommend it to my mother in law, and that's saying something indeed. Drive one if you can, but never buy. recipe contests
