I currently own a Magnum. There are not many of them on the road. If I keep it many years it will become a collectible item real soon..

These actions reflect our new customer-driven philosophy and allow us to focus our resources on new, more profitable and appealing products,” added Jim Press, Vice Chairman and President, Chrysler LLC.

More profitable and appealing products = new charger/challenger that would be sensational !!!!!!

Missile is right the crossfire engine was built by Mercedes/AMG as was the steering; suspension.. I believe pretty much everything mechanical was the same as the SLK230 yet I doubt the gearbox was – it was too “rural”

I feel the PT cruiesr would have been a better car if they put a more powerful engine in it [maybe a small 6] better interior finish [Merc] or even offered it as a panelvan / ute.. but not a cabrio

A possible reason for axing the Magnum could be because they had 2 different facias.. the nice one on the Magnum and the ugly one on the 300C [Note to Holden - Pontiac G8]

Now that the Magnum/300C is gone there’s even more reason for Dodge/Chrysler Australia to push for the Challenger Coupe. paricularly as we are expecting the Camaro, Monaro and Mustang within a couple of years.

Yes the Magnum is the 300C, but we don’t get it here in Dodge form. So CarAdvice is correct.

3 of the 4 are sold here – not 2!
The Dodge Magnum is the 300C touring!

The PT Covertible is proof alone that abortions should be legal. That thing should never have been birthed.

All 4 discontinued cars are ugly as sin. Crossfire is completely pointless when you can buy a 350Z for thousands less instead of this 10 years old Mercedes rebody with disgusting silver plastics and without the all important ‘badge’ and ‘image’.
