RX7 Still a Sleaper????

Is it Rx7 still considered as a slepper or what's going on?
And this statemet is based, because 70% of people i have meet and talk to Don't know about the Mazda Rx7,
20% they know about it but they don't know facts about it , for example : they said is a 4 cilynder or is hella fast etc etc. and
10% of them they do know about their Mazdas.

P.S and why did this forum got so silent?

Re: RX7 Still a Sleaper????

I wondered why it was so quiet too. I think sleeper is more or less a phrase for a car that doesnt look fast but is considerably fast.

Re: RX7 Still a Sleaper????

BTW, Lets start a betting pool on how many beers ShortyDTP had in him at the time of this post. . .



It is spring break............................................. .....1 beer point
Misspelled sleeper 2 times different ways..................Add 2bp
Grammar has significantly deteriorated......................Add 2bp
Used word Hella............................................. .......Add 1bp
Capitalized random word but not I............................Add 2bp
Got general point across.........................................Sub tract 3bp

Hmm let's see that gives me a grand total of 5 beer points.
My moneys on 5, whose in?

Re: RX7 Still a Sleaper????

I always thought a sleeper was a car that wasn't fast from the get go, but could pass you after mid-track like nobodies business. off to a slow start, then explodes into action like a bat out of hell...kinda like...*yawn* "hey, what's going on? a race? HOLD ON, I'M COMING! *VROOM* WINNER!

I'mma say 6 beers.

Re: RX7 Still a Sleaper????

I'd say the turbo model rx-7 is more of a sleeper to the uninformed person since the turbo tends to quiet the exhaust a little more. Plus the turbo is faster so it can dominate.

Re: RX7 Still a Sleaper????

I'd say a stock bodied rx-7 non-turbo with intake/header/exhaust and high flow cats with a rebuilt and ported engine is a sleeper, a stock non-turbo isn't fast enough to be a sleeper, although they pull from 35mph pretty quick(somehow I pulled from 35 up to 65 as fast as a turbo MKIII supra... wierd?)

the turbos have a hood scoop, hood scoop usually means turbo/supercharer/or just sports car, so basically defys being a sleeper

oh and my guess on the beer part: way more than he needed
