Filed under: Detroit Auto Show, Spy Photos, Wagons/Estates, Dodge Brenda Priddy and her lens-wielding henchmen caught a brief, yet undisguised glimpse of the revised Magnum SRT-8, expected to debut next month at the Detroit auto show. The changes are striking, with the Magnum's front-clip taking the brunt of the alterations, beginning with a set of rectangular headlamps whose downsized line reduces the opening of the grill. A modified front bumper sports a set of chrome strips, while the hood looks like its been pulled straight from the Charger, donning a sizeable powerbulge and scoop. Although shots of the rear weren't available, the shooters claim that the taillights also benefit from a few tweaks. Under the hood, Dodge decided to stay with the 6.1-liter HEMI powerplant, mated to a five-speed manumatic that's had a software overhaul to produce smoother, quicker shifts. A revised interior is also in the cards, but we'll all have to wait until its official appearance in Motor City next month for all the changes.

No need to wait... here is what it looks like: http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2008-dodge-magnum-and-srt-8/ Personally I like the front end of my 2006 better... but that's just my opinion...
