I'm still going with the Model A , and the 10 second jeep SRT8 that looks stock and does 0-60 in 2.6 seconds as the best sleepers in the thread.

sleepers need to look and sound nothing like a modified / fast vehicle.

here is a sweet sleeper. scroll down till you see the engine. ita 1.8l BP turbo, runs 12.113 sec at 113.93mph in the 1/4. and the FMIC is sprayed black so its kinda hard to see in the pics.

Before I moved in 2007, I was working on a BP-T Festiva. They're nasty.

you can't tell its on slicks?? you need to relax , and go get a better monitor pal

yes it looks like shit and that's... great ! ... I guess.. I don't care if it looks like shit or stock , you can tell from all the pics and videos its not a sleeper ESPECIALLY if you happen to be sitting next to it on the street or on the line, and can't tell.. you need to move on to a different hobby.

again , a sleeper should be a vehicle that looks , and for the majority sounds stock. and will get the job done. That truck is in no way a sleeper. fast? hell yes. sleeper? hell no. If he would just put the factory tires on the truck, then I would give the two thumbs up.

Some of the cars I've posted aren't true sleepers either , but yet they are forgotten cars that some people won't recognize. This truck is good I guess. Anybody can put a big engine in a piece of crap.. but to disguise it as stock, is another level ... one that many cars in this thread fail to do. no matter how badass they are.

amen . I bought one for $350. aired up the tire and drove it home at almost 50 mpg one of the most fun cars I ever owned.

the 1.8T swaps are amazing in them . but something about going over 85 in the car is just scary I had a left front tire blow at 75 mph and it almost took out the cars wiring harness with it . that was a fun one
