Used 2006 Dodge Magnum SE RWD for Sale near Akron, OH
4 Overall rating
(9 reviews)Very good mpg. Very easy to find dealer and aftermarket parts. Tranny is reliable very smooth shifting has somewhat good acce. Can haul alot of stuff dont need a truck. Very stylish Very reliable no troubles. Is very spacious But needs more speed.
Great curb appeal, good ride, nice acoustics for larger sound system. Performance of 2.7 DOHC is adequate; top end is surprising. Interior rattles on rough roads. Had headlight service (polishing) done twice - original light lenses micro-crack and yellow. Added 18" 2009 Charger mags and 245/55 18 tires and it REALLY improved ride and cornering. Bolted up no issue. Gets 26 MPG on road; more fun to drive with larger wheels.
Performance: The SE has the lower end engine so there is not a lot of pull, but it can keep up. It's a heavy beast, so turning is not it's favorite place to be, however it turns better than expected. Build Quality: This is an "American car" so I've already seen the types of build issues I'd expect. E-Brake handle fell off, one door stopped opening. Otherwise it's been great, however I've only put 30,000 miles on it. Appearance: Like any car, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I happen to love the look, its one of the best looking station wagons I've ever seen. The interior is big and simple, and I prefer it to it's cousin, the 300c. Cost of Ownership: For what you're getting, this car is incredibly cheap. I purchased mine for 20k, for the size, the 18gal gas tank, the performance (6cyl engine), it's a good price. I still can't factor in repair costs because I've yet to have a problem since my warranty expired, but being an American car, I expect it. Fun Factor: This is not a vehicle you whip around in, it's for cruising. But it has lots of style, it's just a wagon version of the 300c, which most wouldn't consider a vehicle that lacks style. Also, ROOMY, I've not had anything I couldn't fit in this vehicle yet (within reason). I don't want a minivan or a giant SUV, so to be able to have 4 kids in the car and fill the car up with junk from Costco and the grocery store is great.
Versatile with good looks and excellent performance, I'm loving not having to worry about the front-end issues that plagued our FWD cars (talkin' about you, Volvo).
Driving a regular Dodge Magnum is a disappointing experience. It actually looks quite good giving the image that its a powerful beastly car with some presence. Trouble is...unless you get the one with the Hemi V8...its rubbish. To drive a SE version you're basically driving one of the slowest cars ever made in the 21st century. Despite having the 2.7L V6 it just can't hit 0-100 km/h without taking about 12 seconds because the car is so heavy. The weight also has more consequences, the car is terrible at handling despite being RWD. For something that isn't as cheap as a econobox or even a mid sized car, this is embarrassing. Why Chrysler even allowed a V6 option for a car that is too heavy to make good use of them is confusing. The Magnum is the slowest car I've ever driven. The interior is just as disappointing as any modern Chrysler. Ergonomically its still the industry's worst, for someone as short as I am, the turn stalk is so low my knee blocks it from performing left turn signals. Like any current Chrysler the plastics are very cheap and disgusting to look at. The good news is the amount of space it provides. The amount of money you save from paying for a V8 Magnum you'll waste in straining every ounce of power the weak V6 tries to make push a vehicle too heavy for it. The car has also been canceled, its unlikely resale value is good at all. Its actually a better idea to get a 300 instead, that car is much of the same as this car but slightly better touches and much less weight. If you were wondering how this car drives, it might be better if you just didn't.
