Sold this car last year.

This car loved the tow truck

Wow, quite a sleeper!

I like chrysler's intent with the hemi, but hate its electronics and excessive thirst for gas (compared to an apples to apples GM).

But, must've been fun driving that "dragin' wagon" down the track

Limp mode blows in this car.
I was going to play with a Viper on the freeway but no limp mode kicked in
This car would get about 10mpg at wot and about 23mpg on the freeway.
Never went to the drag strip with this car.

Yeah, I think they have potential if you can get in there and adjust the oem settings, which you obviously did but otherwise, hehe. Did the magnums have the DoD (forgot the chrysler term), or did you keep it, also? Not bad mileage though considering, but we know if you had the same GM setup, it'd be 26 mpg just messin'...

This is my last ride: '06 300C-SRT8 with mild heads/cam; it put down ~ 445 whp and ran 12.2 @ 117 in Florida on street tires. I vowed to get into the 11s before selling it, but never got around to it. That thing was a great car and I never had a single issue with it.

The 5.7 hemi only had the Multi-Displacement System.
Tuning on this car sucks right now. I can be going 30mph in 5th gear. Tuning the tranmission is impossible right now.

About six month later of selling the car.
The new owner broke the forged crankshaft.

worst part with ALL of the chrysler cars(magnum/300/Charger) is the lack of a third pedal. Its what made my selection of the CTS-V SOOO easy.
