Meh to sleepers. Like dhillon09 says, a practical joke... I just don't care that much though.

Sounds about right.
I have zero desire to drive a sleeper just to surprise people with it's straight line speed.

New Corollas beat me off the line on the way to Whole Foods so that's more than enough of a sleeper. Nothing surprises me anymore.

That's cause you're on your fixie with your tight jeans. Of course it's going to be hard to get the bike off the line.

I hardly think a roll cage and fat rear tires constitutes a sleeper.
Fantastic nonetheless.

What about this car, as a 'new' sleeper?
AWD, 0-60 in under 6 seconds, looks like an unassuming grandpa car
Driven these a lot for work .. and it is pretty quick

Probably just a regular Grand National, as around 40,000 were made. Only 547 GNXs were produced, with most of them likely in museums and private collections by now.
