you can get all wheel drive in both magnum and chargers (starting with the 07 model). i like the look of the charger myself, but you need to get what you like.

Not sure what you saw with a 2.7. The SE comes with a 3.5 according to the Dodge.com site.

As someone who's driven both the Magnum R/T and now a Daytona Charger I can tell you both will handle the snow just fine. The LX chassis is the same on both vehicles. Motor's the same, ESP is the same, even the interior appointments are identical.

It comes down to what body style you like. If you are toting lots of stuff around or have a family then get the Magnum. It has more interior volume.

Both cars are going to perform the same on the road. Acceleration, top end, handling, etc.

IMO the Magnum is more suited for guys that do modding to their vehicles.

Good luck on whatever you choose.
