I think mine has about every option (less AWD) that could be installed. It is great to drive. MPG's well we will see when I have to get more miles on the vehicle in town.  My MSRP was north of 38000. The dealer had about 8 of the same color all fairly loaded. I knew that it would be a good time for a deal, last of the month too doesn't hurt either. Armed with the costs I was able to get about 11% plus some goodies for my Jeep. Let see if I can remember the options. ROOF,SELF SEALING TIRE PACKAGE, TOWING PACKAGE, ROOF-AIRBAGS, NAVIGATION, REAR DVD, PEDALS, UCONNECT (HAD THIS INSTALLED IN MY JEEP, WORTH EVERY PENNY),SIRIUS, STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS, ONE SWEET MOTOR. |

| July 5, 2006, I bought a new leftover 2005 Magnum RT stickered at $31,420. I paid $22,249 out the door (out of state) and then another $690 for sales tax and registration in my home state. It did have 1,445 miles on it, but had not been titled. | |
| My local dealership has 3 2005 leftovers on the lot. They have 2 R/T models which are exactly the same. The sticker is $33,690. What kind of deal do you think I should be able to get on these? | |

In early Feb., on a Saturday I heard from another LX forum that Woodhouse Dodge, Blair, NE advertised about a dozen Bright Silver Magnum SRT8s with Option Group 1 only, stickered for $39,080 and they were offering for $28,840. Sent them an internet contact on Sunday. Salesman called me on Monday morning (WV). By Mon. afternoon I had them delivering my MSRT8 by private trailer. It arrived on Thurs. morning (like the Schwan man). MSRT8 came off, my trade (a '05 300C, minimally optioned) went on the trailer in it's place, and the driver hauled it back to NE. BTW, they gave me my price for the trade and delivery was only $900. Who could say no?! Here's a couple pics. Then...  And now... after adding electronic rearview mirror, U-Connect, MoPar rear parking sensors (all the things the orig. consignment car didn't have), plus tint, pin striping and some additional badges and interior appointments... I'm still way ahead of the cost game.

Replying to: sj2000 (May 06, 2007 9:19 am) As I understand it my vehicle was one of 11 or 12, and a one-time consignment-type opportunity to the dealership. Although I heard that Performance Dodge of Lincoln, NE had a short-term sale in the weeks after that (back in Feb.) in which they were making similar discounts on either left-over '06 Charger and Magnum SRTs. Don't know that there are any deals like that out there anywhere at the moment. But just like the situation changed for me... it can come quite unexpectedly... and you just have to be ready to pounce on it.

I think the new '08 Magnum grill looks too much like the Caliper, or Mini-Mag as I call them. And the new antena looks like a throw back to the old analog cell phone era. I think it's just to get away from the problems some/many had with AM/FM radio reception with the rear glass imbedded antena (perhaps more related to tinting options). I've never had those issues, but I'm not a fan of the pokey pig tail.
