Review written on 5/1958.

We've had access to the Philadelphia Motors Magician for a while now. This Coupe surprised us more than the Mage or the 7254 C969. Is it worth the price? Or should you buy a different Coupe? Read ahead to find out!


On first glance the Philadelphia Motors Magician seems to have everything you'd want in a daily driver on the track. It is not overly powerful, but it packs enough punch to get up and go. While you won't win any races, you won't hold up any traffic. The Coupe's 103 hp @ 4962RPMs 2551 cc I4 engine does well enough under load to keep you satisfied. The Magician is able to top out at 93 mph and accelerates at 19.968s 0 to 60 mph. The engine puts out 88 lb-ft of torque making it able to tow 22 lbs which is average for this class. Ultimately the Philadelphia Motors Magician is your average Coupe on the track. On the track you can tell that the Philadelphia Motors Magician is above average when it comes to handling and driveability. Most Coupe would not be able to keep up with the Magician on twisty and windy roads. It can almost put a smile on your face.


Once we were done playing on the track, we got a good look at the Philadelphia Motors Magician and I must say, we were quite impressed. While not the most luxurious vehicle on the market. It is quite comfortable for what it is. There is just enough styling and support to last on long trips and impress friends, while not being overly expensive like hyper luxurious vehicles.

Inside the Philadelphia Motors Magician it feels like they could add an extra row of seats. There is enough room to even lay down, which is amazing! The 24 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space ensures that you always have plenty of room to do whatever it is you need to do. And that makes us happy.

The workmanship put into the Philadelphia Motors Magician is unparalleled in this market. From its hand finished panelling to ultrahigh quality materials the Magician is truly a work of art that should last a life time. It seems Philadelphia Motors has perfected the perfect.


If there was one vehicle I believe would be able to hit 1,000,000 miles easily it would be the Philadelphia Motors Magician. This vehicle was designed for dependability in mind.

Whether or not the Philadelphia Motors Magician is an energy company conspiracy or not is up for debate. What is certain is the Magician awful fuel mileage of 22.6 mpg will certainly drive up energy stocks!

With some focus on safety, Philadelphia Motors Magician has been able to outshine most in its class. It almost makes you believe the marketing hype that Philadelphia Motors does actually believe in the safety and security of your family.


In the end the Philadelphia Motors Magician provide decent value for the money. It's not the best car in the Coupe segment, but it won't disappoint. You could do a lot worse. If this model appeals to you I see no reason to dissuade you from it.
