Ok stepping away from the class for a moment
favored class bonuses from the core races to give the Magus a little kick
I'm thinking a
+1/4 DC bonus to all spells would be nice
+1/4 bonus to attack roles perhaps ?
+1/4 of extra arcana
+1/3 bonus to effective fighter level
anyone else got some idea for favoured class bonuses ?

The +1/4 Attack sounds nice, make it +1/4 BAB and you have an option to boost the Magus to something like a full BAB Class.
1/4 BAB is very interesting, but I doubt it would get implemented. People would want that option for their clerics and other 3/4 classes.
Might be a neat houserule option for all classes, "add 1/4 to your BAB, this cannot increase your BAB higher than your character level." This might be a little too overpowered compared to the other options, but I don't think it's much better than getting another spell each level as a sorcerer.
The best usage would be for helping monks and rogues and the like qualify for some of the higher BAB requirement feats out there like that +16 bab feat in the scorpion strike chain that monk's could never get otherwise.
