You can't get more sleepy then a Rover 75 with a 4.6 litre V8. I've seen people supercharge them as well which is insanely fun to see.

[herculanoguimaraes]

you probably heard of an out of body experience, but have you heard of a piston out of the engine experience, if you want to know more buy a car with a northstar engine

[oidocrop]

saab 9-5 aero is so sleeper that nobody mentioned it, happy to surprise everyone with my one :)

[bhangarh]

I was sure there would be a bricky volvo with inline 5 :D

And I'm really happy about that :)

[PaneledPear]

What about the Lexus is300 first gen? That's like the perfect cheap, powerful, and reliable sleeper car.

it would be cool if you did a power to weight ratio number.. :)

[MagnusVenter]

Only Volvo and Subaru are real sleeper on this video, others is fat SUV with big engine.

*7 Cheap Sleepers Under 15K (Portugal Edition)


ahahah

jk. Nice to see proper sleepers.

[ActionHeinz]

lol, 5k in which country in which currency?
All of them are at least double the price when in at least acceptable condition.

[upgradeNEVER]

The Subaru Legacy GT never had a STI sourced engine. While yes, it may have been designed by them in the first place, it was an open deck block. Plus it was a Twin Sequential Turbo set up, which is very much a product of its time.
They did however make a STI version of the 98-03 Legacy called the S401 (I happen to own one). Basically, take a normal Legacy GT TT - throw the entire STI catalogue at it (6 speed manual, EJ207 forged and semi-closed short block, custom suspension, Brembos, to name a FEW things), and you had a S401. A lot of people describe the S401 as the Granddaddy of the Legacy, and a close second to the Impreza 22B. But they cost nothing like the 22B at the moment. But that'll change for sure.
Plus, if you're wanting a TT Legacy, get what's called the Rev D, which is the final "Revision" of the shape. They were 02-03. They have a multitude of minor differences over the Rev A/B/C cars. But most importantly, the ECU is re-tuneable. So you're able to single turbo swap them.

Not first.
The STS was front wheel drive.

[Stale_Mahoney]

yeah the volvo box was not only no slouch but was surprisingly agile on the curvy roads as well.

[Hx_Smoke]

Lol. The subi seemed quicker and better looking compared to the rest. I bought a 99 volvo s80 with 280ft lbs of torque and hp from 2k rpm to 6k for $200, under 1k into it and its one hell of a sleeper. Still want a 2.5gt subi tho.

[bradleyharris]

Give that man in the last video a medal. Absolutely perfect shifts

[chucki]

The STS and first gen SRX were true American sleepers. But I would love to do a EJ20X swap in my Outback though, if it will work in it.

[euklid]

On the video you made a mistake, you had videos of Cadillac Seville instead of a STS. The Seville is FWD while the STS is RWD.

[MagnificentlyHighAlien]

Northstar engines apparently aren't reliable, and the ml55 and touareg have a lot of problems on their own
Edit: what I want to say is thay you'll probably run into another 5k repair and running costs.

[CivicEkERZ]

I have a 3rd gen legacy b4 and its a great and fun car and has ah pretty unexpected performance
And by the way the 3rd gen legacys from japan are twin turbos sequential ;)

[dragonballbuthead]

I feel the Bmw 540i should be on this list aha

[MrWombatty]

Most of these are very expensive even 2nd-hand here in Australia, but a neighbour down the road from me is real happy with his Liberty (even the same colour as the example shown), which he bought after inspecting numerous thrashed WRXs!
