Curbside Capsule: Dodge Magnum and Mirada

[tbm3fan]

A couple of rarely seen cars especially for out my way since I have only seen pictures but never an actual car. Cordobas yes, my father had one for a year, but these never.

I saw a Magnum with T-tops at a cruise in last summer. Nice car.

I always loved the Magnum

I kicked myself in the *** as I did not go look at and maybe buy a 1982 custom Mirada convertible (barn find) about 75 miles away from me. :dontknow: OH well....

They were a very limited car, perhaps double digits made, not Factory of course but still an awesome car. ONe was on e bay a dozen years ago, sold for less than 10k

Do you still own the Magnum GT? Mine was Midnight Blue (GT) with dove grey interior with the "Premium" 360 engine, T-tops also. I traded it in 1983 for a '67 Satellite with a Hemi. Both are long gone but enjoyed both.

I damn near bought a '79 Magnum GT in 1982. It was a T-top car with the 360, and black with red leather. Gorgeous car! With what I was making at that time, money would've been pretty tight, so I reluctantly backed out of the deal. I've always liked these.

Very nice cars!

The Mirada is a very under appreciated car. Great styling and with the 360 a decent performer.

I just can not warm up to the next generation of cars to carry on their names.
I say, Yaaaahhh. Ok. But my heart ain't into it. The cars in this thread really were the last of the good ones.
