BAC5.2 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Not so much a sleeper compared to the Buick T-type which was basically the same thing without the blacked out paint, decals, etc. You could get a T-Type in white. What could possibly be less intimidating than a white Buick? Someone in the DFW area was selling a gold T-Type for $4500. I was soooo tempted to buy it, but got "the look" when I suggested it.

KeyLimePi3 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I just picked up an e39 540i sport 6 speed. It's a beast! Absolute joy to drive and on the high way that v8 screams. From the outside it just looks like an older DD for a buisnessman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the outside it just looks like an older DD for a buisnessman. Those kind of count. They are much quicker than most people expect.

Sludgeroo Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I was thinking why the 1985-86 Mustang SVOs didn't make it, or the SSP model notch back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueWhiteBoy Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Probably because a Mustang isn't a sleeper in any form... They're kinda expected to go fast, even if they don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sludgeroo Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 But the fox bodies are not even close to being a sports car. They are so bastadized Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sludgeroo Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 And if a mustang isn't, then neither is a t-type in my eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueWhiteBoy Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 That's fine. It's a term that offers some wiggle room as a car that "looks fast" is entirely subjective, but the main idea is that it's a car that no one would think would go fast, but does.

Sludgeroo Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I get it. Then maybe the tempo gxp? Had same motor as the SVO's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
