                                PRESS RELEASE
                       MAGNA ANNOUNCES NEW APPOINTMENTS

Monday, April 4, 2005, Aurora, Ontario, Canada -- Magna International Inc.
(TSX: MG.SV.A, MG.MV.B; NYSE: MGA) ("Magna") today announced that its Board
of Directors has appointed Donald Walker and Siegfried Wolf as Magna's co-
Chief Executive Officers. Frank Stronach relinquishes the position of interim
Chief Executive Officer that he assumed on a temporary basis following the
resignation of Belinda Stronach in January 2004, and remains Chairman of
Magna's Board of Directors.
    Mr. Walker, who has been with Magna since 1987, was previously Magna's
Chief Executive Officer from November 1994 up until February 2001, when he
agreed to lead Intier Automotive Inc., Magna's interiors and closures
subsidiary, which went public in August 2001. Magna has now privatized
Intier, which became effective yesterday.
    Mr. Wolf has been with Magna since July 1995, and has previously held
such positions as President of Magna Europe, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Magna Steyr and most recently Executive Vice-Chairman of Magna.
    Manfred Gingl will continue his role as Executive Vice-Chairman, Mark
Hogan will remain Magna's worldwide President and Vincent Galifi continues as
Chief Financial Officer.
    On behalf of Magna's Board, Mr. Frank Stronach stated: "For the benefit
of all stakeholders, Magna must always look for ways to remain competitive on
a global basis. Last October, we announced our intention to take private our
three public subsidiaries to take advantage of cross-group opportunities and
increase Magna's overall competitiveness. With the privatization of Intier
which took effect yesterday, we have now completed all three privatizations."
    "Our Board has spent considerable time recently working on management
succession planning, and I am very pleased to have Don rejoin the senior
management team at Magna that includes, among others, Siegi, Fred, Mark and
Vince. With competition and pricing and cost pressures intensifying in the
global automotive industry, I believe this strong management partnership is
well positioned to lead Magna in its continuing evolution and to protect the
decentralized and entrepreneurial culture needed for Magna to remain a leader
in the global automotive industry. This culture, combined with the commitment
and dedication of our many managers and employees, has been and will remain
the cornerstone of Magna's success."

    Magna, the most diversified automotive supplier in the world, designs,
develops and manufactures automotive systems, assemblies, modules and
components, and engineers and assembles complete vehicles, primarily for sale
to original equipment manufacturers of cars and light trucks in North
America, Europe, Mexico, South America and Asia. Magna's products include:

and complete vehicle engineering and assembly through Magna Steyr. Magna has
