Question What does it mean that volvo's are great sleeper cars?

Sorry I'm a n00b here and I've seen this remark from several members. Does it mean that they're comfortable to sleep in?




Btw, can anyone help me with my Volvo S40? I'm having trouble getting wiring done through the firewall. See this thread:

Thanks!

Re: What does it mean that volvo's are great sleeper cars?

lol, bro, a sleeper is a car that is generally accepted as being slow or looks like a total bomb (ie: buckeld pannels, different color doors, taht sort of thing) or looks totaly stock but is actually a very fast car. the hole theory is to take people at trafic light drags by suprise as you blast into the distance.

pmsl, everyone thinks that Volvo's are slow and driven by older conservative types. So when you have one of either Volvo's own fast cars like the T5R, or if you build it yourself like mine. People cannot believe that a Volvo can actuly be that fast.
