I can't remember the last time we sold one. I can't remember the last time we test drove one. Heck, I can't even remember someone actually looking at one.

I don't think dodge would want to discontinue them being that the magnum is one-of-a-kind car, but then again it's kind of pointless being that its nothing but a re-shaped charger. They're practically twins.
Not really a re-shape... Charger looks more like the 300C, than the Magnum...
That's not what I was saying. All I'm saying is that the only thing that is different about the two is the looks, the shape of it, in other words. (interior and exterior)

If they do stop selling the Magnum maybe it's time for the US to get the 300c Touring Wagon

I still have not seen a 300 Touring yet in Australia when i went to the dealer this month to see one they already sold out what they had before they arrived. Chrysler had it's best sales month in Australia last month since 1997 and we are still waiting for Dodge to Arrive in August. The dealer also said most of the Calibers arriving at that dealer have been pre sold already.

Considering they sell the 300C as a wagon in both Canada and Europe....I dont know that they will fully discontinue the Magnum. The Magnum is a great looking car and fun to drive.

That being said, with all the horrible gas mileage vehicles Dodge/Chrysler has right now....and with the Challenger going to be even worse on gas......it wont surprise me if we see the death of the Magnum......

They dont sell the 300c as a wagon in Canada its Europe only!!!!!

Since the Charger Magnum and 300 are all on LX platforms I don't think they will replace the Magnum with the Challenger.
The Challenger will be on a new platform dubbed the LY.

True, but the LX platform cars are moving to the LY platform as well If I remember right, either for the 2008 or 2009 model year.
