Hey guys, in today's video I am comparing the 2 Mopar Wagons, the Dodge Magnum which was available in North America, and the Chrysler 300C Touring, which was available overseas in Europe, Australia, and other places. This video goes in-depth on the specs, history, and cancellation of both wagons. They were unique, fun, and powerful, but unfortunately by 2010, they were both cancelled. Which wagon do you think was better?

@kevinwong6588 3 месяца назад

Despite the 300 marketed as a full size with 120" wheelbase, the Magnum/300 wagon only had 71.6 cubic feet cargo volume and 133.1 cubic feet interior volume, in the EPA midsize wagon class and barely larger than a K-car and smaller than a late 70s Aspen.

@kryskozlowski142 5 лет назад

Quick note, the 300 touring wagons were built in Austria and in fact very successful in Germany. I recall seeing a lot of the diesel versions as German drivers thought them to be a budget version of the e class. They got fairly heavy use in the taxi industry as well. The U.K. is a very poor reflection of the European car market, as tge French and German markets are much larger in size and more accepting of large diesel powered station wagons. From personal experience, the mag steyr cars suffer a lot of similar electronic and build quality problems as their US equivalents, like blend doors, heater switch failures, ecm and window switches going out early, and the infamous 2.7 v6 sludge issue

Definitely prefer the 300 nose to the magnum but that's obviously a matter of taste. Over here in the Netherlands they're incredibly rare (especially the wagon) and I think I've seen about 3 or 4 others on the road in the past year.

Honestly I like the Magnum better. The classy 300 front end on the aggressive magnum rear end just doesn't match well to me. I loved my 05 but the interior wasn't that nice to touch. Looked good, but the seats were a little hard and everything you touched was just hard. No soft touch anything, not even the steering wheel on my top of the line RT. Had leather wrapped but still was hard

@michaelandin1167 5 лет назад

Just hear me out, now I understand from a business standpoint why Chrysler chooses time and time again to make nearly all of their Dodge/Chrysler vehicles run on the same platform (makes parts cheaper to mass produce and use on multiple vehicles) but honestly. What reason do you give people to buy certain cars if there’s like no incentive other than a nameplate? Like the Charger and 300 have been the same god damn car since they started! Arguably the furthest they’ve been apart since production in 2005 is the current gen models, and that can pretty much all be attributed to the fact that they give no more shits about even bothering with the 300 at all. Like why would I pay $5k-6k more for a 300 over a Charger when they look the same. Perform the same and all the features can be shared between the two! I have a 2018 Chrysler and when I order Mopar parts I just say I have a Charger because it doesn’t even matter. Js. Rant over.

@JB-xp8xl 5 лет назад

300's are a little more upscale with options Magnum and Charger couldn't get, such as a light in the glove box, that's why you pay more for it.

@michaelandin1167 5 лет назад

A glove box light is an option? I thought we were granted that luxury like 40 years ago I’ve never owned a Charger nor have I ever felt the need to have one

I think it's more the case that there was nothing else like the 300c in the UK that could compete with its price. No other car offered a V8 like it. In Australia however there are more large V8 powered cars like it.

@CX0909 Год назад

My god the 300C wagon interior is 100 times better than the magnum. That was the one thing I hated about my Magnum. That light grey just made me want to kill myself it was so depressing. But that black 300 interior with the chrome accents is sooooo much better. One thing I really loved about my Magnum is that it was AWD. Those are hard to find and useful as hell in bad road conditions. Thankfully it was an RT. So it had a little punch too. I was an idiot to let that thing go. Like many have already said… BRING IT BACK!

@FirstMetalHamster 4 года назад

If they would’ve offered a manual transmission, instead of the 8+ different engine options, these cars would still be on the market today.
