Dodge Magnum R/T
The Magnum was a retro-inspired station wagon that was sold in the 2000s. The car was based on the new Charger platform and offered a Hemi V8 engine. But what was even more awe-inspiring was the SRT version of the car that offered some of the fastest performance of the period. The Magnum was meant to stand out from the crowd, and it started Dodge’s transition into being the niche brand that it is today. Some people hated the Magnum and others loved it, which is why the car has such a diverse enthusiast community to this day (via Hagerty).
Dodge was quick to let you know in advertising that this wasn’t your father’s station wagon. Likewise, the Magnum offered a plethora of styles and luxury as well. The leather interior and the one-of-a-kind paint job made the Magnum a popular choice with V8 enthusiasts. The final generation of the car was the rarest and was released during a turbulent time in the economy. But if you can get your hands on one, it was a legitimate piece of modern MOPAR history and muscle.
