2006 Dodge Magnum SXT

I went from trumpet to clarinet, the trumpet is much more exciting. I had to buy a new reed almost every week when I played clarinet.

Maybe you shouldn't have stuck it up your ass so much then.

Fidhle, damn, that sort of hostility was totally unexpected. I don't know what to say, I wasn't even prepared.

these things are not fast. the hemi version does about a 15.2-15.5 1/4 mile with an average driver. you could take them in a stock E30 325is with a good driver and decent street tires.

Umm... a stock Hemi 5.7 Charger will do a low 14-second pass; the SRT8 will do low 13's. The Magnums are a bit slower, but not much.

The SXT V-6 of either, why bother?

Why do I care? I don't, particularly, but I will say that each of my cars has its uses:




Regardless, Internet racing is like Internet sex - what's the point?

This is just meant to clear up the info on the car. My wife and I currently own a 2005 Magnum SXT (250hp) It should be able to do that speed pretty easy but i believe it is electronically limited to something lower due to the tires that come with it. As far as the ar goes, it is a really nice car. i have had zero problems with it going on 70,000 miles. Keep in mid Mercedes had a hand in the development of the LX platform. It's a relatively quick car for being close to 4000lbs but by no means any kind of racer. I would describe it as more of a cruiser.
Im currently in the market for a Magnum RT or SRT-8 There definitely is no comparing the V6 to the 5.7 or 6.1 Hemi. I have driven all three. The 5.7 is by no means a slouch. It will haul some serious ass. The 6.1 is just insane to drive. given a "decent" driver it is a low 13 sec car. the both came with a Merc designed Manumatic (slap shifter). A cool mod people have done is taking Mercades paddle shifter and mating them to the Magnums steering wheel. The reason i decide to go with the Magnum is because of the price, the room, I have a child and performance. It's definitely a true sleeper. Who wants to get beat by a wagon lol!

Ok back to our regularly scheduled flaming.

maybe he will be your lover if you give him an autographed copy of your senior picture. write something provocative on the back, something to the effect of driving your stick deep into his windpipe? please paypal my dollar to gazellebeigem3@ead.com

TIA

Haha..I know what you're trying to say. It's okay to be shy. If you want a copy for yourself, I'm sure I can send one your way with a little bit of something extra ;)

I like the set up. There is a all black mini somewhere around here that looks awesome.

And my situation isn't really internet racing, since I know him personally. And I never once said I was going to race him, just to clear that up.

A+ thread, would read again.

I couldn't just let that one pass me by, now could I?

Some guy in my class with a V6 Charger was talking shit about how his car is faster then mine (My ETA). So one day after class we ended up beside eachother at a light.

He shut up after that, and I laughed because my 22 year old low on compression, shitbox, economy sedan BMW beat his $30,000 muscle car wannabe.

Point of this post, the ugly shit bag herse looking thing is slow.

A v6 charger starts at $22,995.

Thanks. Yeah, I know the deal - I know some people that engage in the same BS, it's kinda fun to pin them down to it. For some reason they can never actually show me in person... ;)
