No one will ever accuse the current Dodge Magnum of being a chick car, so making the Magnum SRT-8 look strong and mean wasn't really a big challenge for Dodge. Subtle differences include a front fascia with larger air inlets and ducts that help cool the brakes, and the rear features a wake modifier and large cutouts for the chrome dual exhaust tips. The grille, mirrors and exterior door handles are all body-colored, meaning they're either Bright Silver, Brilliant Black or Inferno Red Crystal Pearlcoat. Grown-ups who used to ride brown bikes and parents who want to make a smoky departure from tedious PTA meetings will be able to check out a Dodge Magnum SRT-8 sometime in the middle of 2005.

About Thom Blackett
Thom Blackett joined Autobytel in 2000 as a Research Analyst with the company's data division, Automotive Information Center (AIC). After four years of pouring through press kits searching for minute details, Thom jumped to Autobytel's editorial team. Born and raised in the state of Maine (no, it's not part of Canada and yes, the proper pronunciation of lobster is "lobstah"), Thom has always been a car nut, using his grandmother's potholders as steering wheels to "drive" around the house as a youngster. His biggest sorrow is never getting to know his grandfather's 1959 Caddy, or the '62 Impala Convertible and '69 Chevy Malibu that his parents once owned. As Autobytel's Road Test Editor, Thom strives to write articles that serve to inform as well as entertain. A proud member of the Motor Press Guild, Thom holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Maine. Comments may be emailed to thomb@autobytel.com.
