Best Sleeper Car Overall?

Sleeper: a car that surprises you on how fast it is; a car that a traffic light you try to take but knocks the snot off you in terms of you lose and you had no idea how you lost to it

Personally...I like a debadged M5. Get some 525i emblems, some 525i wheels and front fascia, and get one exhaust going on. Then when someone tries to race you...they'll feel that 400HP/369 lbs. of torque kick them down. Hehehe.

I am sure there are better ones and probably more fun ones...but I personally like this for its nasty quality while maintaing some luxury.

I would have to say, not really. People think the SHO is fast but the big SHO aint' that big at all.

I feel my car makes a great sleeper. A lot of people here rip on it because it is a LeBaron. I think it looks good and a lot of people wonder why the hell they just got beat by a LeBaron.

1. NISSANSPDR.

My car will run about mid to high 13's in the quarter mile. She will go 0-60 in the low to mid 6's and she tops out at about 146MPH. It is completely stock except for a K&N filtercharger, boche platinum spark plugs, and some cosmestic and interior changes. The Baron has about 185HP and 210 foot pounds of torque.

What have I dudsted? Anything from your usual rice on up to mustangs, some F-bodies, there are just too many cars to list, Civics, Ludes, RSX. Maybe I can make a log of all the cars I fry in the LeBaron sometime.

2. mastachi.

Why thank you. That is exactly what my car looks like except for the wheels. You should see all the smack that people talk around here about my car because it is a LeBaron. And also, I only got one turbo, one BIG stage 2 turbo.

my impreza wagons a good sleeper. 4 cyl station wagon, low 15s maybe high 14s stock. people think cuz its not a wrx its just another economy car... HAH!

but i will have to vote for polygons lebaron. if somebody revved up at me id laugh at them, then if it was him hed smoke my ass...

no wait, im changing my vote, has anyone seen those old school dodge caravans that are awd turbo and people put t88 conversions and nitrous and manual transmission swaps and everything on them but they look COMPLETELY stock, most of them even have the stock wheels and fake wood trim. i got a video of one running a 10...

and i dont think a new maxima will run a 14 stock??? i raced one? it was close but no he was behind me?

if you go to the maxima forums here. you see people postin up time slips for their 2k2 max's in the low to mid 14's. the older vq30de have a hard time gettin down to 14's even with mods. but the 2k2's can hit 14's stock. sportscompact car also verified this by makin it hit 15 flat. but you know how well car magazine's launch cars. soooo i can safely say 14's also.

I can't believe no one said this: GRAND NATIONAL. Unless you actually know what the car is, you think its just a crappy old family car.

What about this GMC Python or whatever it's called? You know this pick up truck... Because everyone now knows the Ford SVT whatever pick up so it doesn't count... Also if you have ever heard of Alpina B8 4.6 , it suprises pepole expecting 320 or 328... Also my friend has a RS4 avant and besides the wheels he made it look like a 2.4 (he even put a 2.4 badge on it)... And you know anyone could change wheels an exhaust on a 2.4 so he suprises many pepole at the light... Pepole also like to get smoked by my S8 because it's also debaged... i thought of putting a 2.8 badge on it but i don't know if this wouldn't be too much... There are also old rwd turbo volvos kicking some major ass , with turbo conversions with lots of hp or ones with swapped V8 f.e from mustangs...
