I bought a new toy...Dodge Magnum SRT-8.
This thing gives a whole new meaning to 'passing power'
Holy Crap!!!
I had to change my shorts after my 1st blast..with only 39 miles in the odometer.
Wish me luck.....
Side Bar:I picked the car up 3 days ago and it sure seems like every kid with one of those Subaru WRX wants to race. Whats up with that???

My cousin almost bought a new Sub. WRX, but wound up with a (used) 2003 ZO6 'Vette. Very, very nice car. It came with a video tape about the design and building of it, which was greatly interesting to an old gear head like me.

It was the fastest thing I'd driven since I parked my old front engined small block Chevy dragster.

Congrats on your new Mopar, Doug!

Congratulations!!!! I bought a Dodge Magnum Hemi R/T AWD two weeks ago. Small world. Love the car.
I coula bought the SRT but I just couldn't swallow only 20 MPG on the highway and premium fuel. You can imagine the city MPG. Nevertheless, great cars.

That's the one with the 400 plus hp, souped up hemi, isn't it Doug? Those guys in the WRX's must think they are in the "Fast and the Furious". You'll be able to stomp them.

Those are almost as nice as my Hemi Charger. Lots of fun to see the expressions on the zitfaced kids in daddys 5.slow mustang when they find out that a big 4 door is lots faster and corners better. Now, if I can just scrape up enough cash to get a Challenger when they come out at the end of next year....
