what do you consider a sleeper

i consider a sleeper a car with the only visuals an exhaust, rims, and tint that you can see...i'd have my interior done up but other than that....that's the only thing you'd see other than a repainting of my stock paint job....

opnions...:confused:

Sleeper = looks slow, but is actually fast.

no ghey ass stickers !

My car.. The only visual hints you get is that the car is low.
No tints, and the exhaust is made to look totally stock.. But with 2.5" piping. ;)

IMO a sleeper is a little dirty, looks like a daily driven car...looks like someone is trying to fix it up...that way people mess with you and rev on you....then you smoke em when you have a way fast car....:devil:

I think the perfect sleeper would look COMPLETELY stock. Including wheels, ride height, tint, look kinda dirty (like a daily driver), and have nothing to give it away. I mean do NOTHING to the outside, so if it was parked then you couldn't tell that it wasn't stock.

Well I don't know about you guys but I'm more afraid of racing a stock looking car than one with a full body kit and wheels. Like the one that melt posted, I don't care what you guys say, but it looks fucking fast. I don't see very many people with kits that have a fast car, so stockish looking cars scare me. Completely stock looking cars don't bother me, cause usually they are stock or just have an intake. But when it's lowered, has an exhaust, rolling on steelies, no body kit, no stickers, and sometimes has tint, I'm straight skurred.

im with kicker. I see cars like the one melt posted, and I want to know what is under the hood, because I know there is some beast under there, or more than likely there is, but cars with body kits and all the show stuff, im not that scared of. I know of one that is really really nice on the outside, got a bodykit, nice paintjob, some graphics, sort of looked like it came from F&F, but didn't look like shit, back to the point, the car had nothing done to the motor, it was still stock. And completely stock looking cars don't bother me either, because they are usually stock around here, but lowered and steelies scare me.

so kicker... i guess i'd scare u if i pulled up beside u at a light huh?:D i'm stock, lowered 1.8 inches, exhaust, and stock steelies hehe, but i'm slow as hell cuz i got a d15b2 still lol oh and i got tint haha

I love sleepers. Im working on getting one myself. Its all rusty and on steelies and its eventually going to have a turbo ZC. Its also gonna be lowered but I dont know if im gonna get rims. If I do their going to be gunmetal. Theres a real good deal on ebay right now for some 16' gunmetal MR7's so I wanna get them. But other than that, my car is ugly and its gonna scream.

a sleeper is a car you wouldn't even think to race and it tries to race you and you just laugh because it looks like a stock factory car but then when it hands you your ass your like damn i just got slept on

you just described my exact setup haha

i think now a days a sleeper would be a car that had a body kit, rims, stickers, a all around rice car w/ a fully built engine.... turbo or nitrous because you people would think that he;'s just a riceboy and has nothing done to the engine of the car. :D just my 2 cents.

I would say my car is sort of a sleeper...;) b16a powered 4dr with stock 89 si wheels, lowered a bit. The faded paint, dents and dings,and peeling clearcoat make it look like a beater but it has a strong heart.;) The only hint is the bling bling thermal exhaust;) A real sleeper though is something that looks slow but can really fly when it has to.

COME TO THINK ABOUT IT...THAT WOULD BE KINDA TRUE

it will sorta be like mine cause i have my shop stickers on the back windows and shaved door handles,side moldings,antenna,emblems,squirters, everything, and it's got 99 si rims, dropped 4 inches,and will soon have a nitrous charged, built zc under the hood and flame paint. heheheh here's a link to a pic before i did the handles moldings and antenna http://tlag.8k.com/Jace%20FR.jpg

yea thats not a sleeper at all

That old tercel is quite a sleeper as long as you dont see that huge intercooler hanging out of the front. :D My mom used to have one of those, I only wish it was that fast.
