My son fixed the Hemi "problem"

My hubby and I have been drooling over the Magnums ever since we saw it on TV as a concept vehicle last year. We had just put to rest our old reliable '81 Malibu Wagon that did it all for us. When sittin down thinking of "what do they make these days that could possibly REPLACE it? " (besides a truck/SUV) The Magnum was IT!

Now, if only they made it in our price range. :P

Someday. Meanwhile, I'll have to keep relying on my good ol' Nova and his Chevy-fied '84 Cougar (SBC fits nicely in it) to keep us happy on the street and the strip.

My 14yr old son had some digital fun with the Magnum as it would become if we won a lottery and picked a couple up FROM the dealer. (Red one for me, Black one for hubby.) It would get a slight modification to what the Hemi SHOULD be.

Bobf, I think the aftermarket potential for the Magnums will be awesome. 10yrs FROM now, I'll bet a lot of them get "restored" INTO hot rods. That's about when I'll be able to afford them. LOL Not many full frame RWD cars being made these days.

My hubby and I were jokingly thinking of visiting the dealership in the spring when the R/T's are in full swing, and telling the dealer we want to test drive it at the dragstrip. If it can beat my Nova, we'll take one. LOL I didn't expect these heavy cars to be pulling low 14's though...WOW...would be a dead even match!

I think if we made that challenge, we might just have to pull out the checkbook for one.

(And sell the house first. hehehe)
