The internet information on Dodge Magnum Police cars mentions 2-wheel drive SXT 6-cylinder cars with 5-speed automatic transmission and heavy duty suspension, brakes, and sway bars. The article mentions column shift levers as is common on a Police car.

Any inside information when the floor mounted 5-speed auto will be put on 2-wheel SXT along with some of the improved suspension, brakes, etc... from the RT? This is the running gear I want. Do we need to wait for November, or will Dodge have a July model change? The 5-speed auto in the SXT seems necessary to compete both in performance and MPG with Ford's 6-speed auto.
