I wanted to get some opinions on the 2. Some pros and cons. I am not too concerned with speed (though I do want the srt model), I just love the looks of both cars. Hopefully they will be primarily used as promotional cars for tradeshows and such (they will eventually be wrapped). But I am curious if any of you had bad experiences or have some input on the reliability of these cars. Also which would you get?

Yea the look on both is great. I like that the charger is 4 door so it can double as a grocery getter if needed.

Well it is more of a marketing thing but it helps that we like both of those cars. But this decision is largely based on some market analysis we did plus these cars are right up our alley based on the target demographic we are trying to entice (and price).

Yours is the 2 tone one right? May clash with our vehicle wrap.

Yea but i'm sure it can be changed back for cheap or sanded off to be wrapped or what not.. It's flashy enough just throw a sticker on the door of the business haha

+1 on the Magnum. I bought an 05 for my wife 3 years ago, i have had no problems at all. Very smooth clean ride. Inside is very roomy. I have 22's on it and it rides like a Caddy, Nice & Smooth! If you fold the seats down you have tons of cargo room if needed.

the magnum is actually alot more roomy and the srt8s look mean, the chargers are ok but why not look into a srt8 300c or jusst a RT 300c?.
and since its a wagonback it will get alot more looks on some 22's or 24's and nice paint. hatchbacks and sport wagons always catch my attention.

pros - they're affordable
cons - they're affordable
I think they're both pretty gay, no offense but i would never buy either. 4 door charger or wagon charger hmm? tuff choice? They were okay until everyone got one but now They seem to be the next trend kinda like the old body escalade, and will end up just like the 300C did. I'd get a honda and be different. Big Body Accord, lol if that's even allowed to be in the same sentence.

lol..they are not necessarily for personal purpose (although I will be mobbing it a lot). But for a marketing and branding. It is a bit premature as we are not fully launching until next summer or maybe fall but I figure we should get our marketing stuff together prior to the big push.
