Dodge Magnum Preview – 2007 Detroit Auto Show: Lots of people want to buy the Magnum, and many do. For those who don’t it’s more a case of what the Magnum is than what it’s not. It’s an unabashedly macho, gas guzzling, low riding ’tude wagon that looks great when you’re off with friends from your bowling league, but not so hot when you’re driving to that all-important corporate lunch. Dodge aims to change that – but only slightly – with changes to the 2008 Dodge Magnum, by making it as macho but more refined, and more comfortable to sit inside.
