The Sleeper car was born in an era where style wasn't everything, but power meant everything. While appearing to be a standard or neglected car, internally they are modified to have higher performance levels, typically referred to as "all go and no show." Some vehicle owners create sleepers by swapping more powerful engines or making other performance modifications, like adding supercharging or turbocharging, leaving the external appearance as it came from the factory. Sometimes hints of the car's true nature are visible: wider tires, a lower stance, or a different engine tone or exhaust note. If you built your own sleeper car, what would it be?

Day 7 of asking for a “So You Want A Cobalt SS”
Wtf wants a Cobalt Super Slow 🤣😂
Mine is pushing 330 whp on just bolt ons and a tune. Super sleeper
@@グーグル翻訳-k7n It goes faster around the nurburgring than a R34 Gtr
@@グーグル翻訳-k7n they are bargains for the performance. No Lift Shift, Factory Boost Gauge, Brembo Brakes and some even had Recaro seats all for under 25k new. Now you can get them for under 10k. They are seriously fast and can push lots of power easily
It’s an underrated car. The 2.0 turbo ecotec is a really good motor. I have a 2008 HHR SS with some bolt ons (getting a tune soon). It has the same engine and runs like a champ.
So you want a Mazdaspeed 6
I've been asking for forever. I love my speed6
I was thinking the same. The speed 6 is the ultimate sleeper
@@morgansproul4857 it really is. Especially with a decently quiet exhaust

Just bought my ‘06 Aero a week ago!
@@1TieDye1 About to get my 05 Aero.
Someday I'm going to buy an SS and slap proper Holden and Commodore badges on it to make my family in Australia proud 😂
Sooner than later. Prices are going up.
@@Willer31 Yeah it's rough since I'm paying my way through college 😭
@@Willer31 couldn't afford a ss. Got a G8
Apparently you can turn caprice ppv into the utes. More aussie, less money
Sleepers are awesome, and my family has one as a DD...2018 Ford Flex Limited, AWD, 3.5L EcoBoost (which replaced the 2011 Flex EB we had before it). These cars are a Taurus SHO with a wagon body, and are surprisingly pretty quick and nimble for their size and weight. With good aftermarket tires and a couple of other upgrades, our lunchbox on wheels is able to embarrass other crossovers, without breaking the bank...
“So you want a 2nd gen Lexus IS”
Yeeeeessss
Everyone sleeps on us 😔
There's no such thing as a sleeper car to a car enthusiast just appreciation for a well-built car

I see a chevy SS in the thumbnail, I click on the video 👌
It’s a Holden first and foremost 💯
Right! G8 😎
Day 55 of asking for "So you want a VW Passat W8".
Bro
It's a VW
Get something that's worth your money
On board with this. I almost had a 6mt w8 wagon, but was unable to pull together the funding :(
Nobody wants that sh*tbox of a car
I've got one for ya! Just stay with me for 2 seconds here. Factory supercharged v6 that you could own for like under 3k. Your grandma's bubble buick from the late 90s early 2000s. The buick park Avenue. Arguably one of the best sleepers out there. The 3800 is a more than proven v6 while it is front wheel drive you can also find this same engine (not supercharged) in some of the Camaros in the same time period. Those can be supercharged with junkyard heads and a modified supercharger or have one shipped up from the buys down under cause their holdens 3.8 had a supercharger.
There is also a lot of aftermarket support for these engines where you can get performance cams and upgraded springs and lifters. I've even seen turbo kits for the non supercharged variant if that's your thing. These engines are also plentiful. At my local large pick n pull place I can easily find 20+ cars with the 3800 in it and occasionally the supercharged one so there's no worries about blowing it up. Literally this was in almost every gm car in the late 90s
"BEST MF THUMBNAIL EVER!" :D .. Owner of one of them beaut's.. About as sleeper as it can get, then you hear that LS3 blow past ya :0
Love the car but I hate to say this. Most definitely not a sleeper for almost all car guys/gals. Not only are they mildly aggressive but most know what lies beneath the hood of that small sized sedan and the tuning possibilities of the stock motor/setup. You could fool some cocky stock 5.0 or camaro owner but if they’re a real car person they’l know wassup
Far from a sleeper lol
@@slumygoat Yep, my dad says his looks just like any other regular Chevy sedan but it’s bright red and the hood has some aggressive lines and there are mildly sporty design cues across the car. Definitely not a sleeper IMO. Fun? Oh yeah, definitely!
@@NatedoGP Yes sir
The G8 (its older brother) looks more aggressive imo. Id rather get the rare GXP LS3 than a Malibu.
Sleepers has always been the best, just show up too any meet, find the snob guy that keeps bragging & you can be everyone’s hero by shuting his ass up XD
I’ve got a 2006 S60R and let me tell you, every “small” fix isn’t small. Everything is over complicated and fucking expensive as hell. It is a cool car though...
All the Rs just suck money from the owners pockets. I’ve got 13k in my 98 v70R in just the last 8 months
Wisconsin gang where u at.
Milwaukee County here

SSleeper Gang all the way.! For sure its a conversation starter for people who have no idea what/s under the hood
Anyone else misread the title like “so you want to sleep in your car” lol
@WhosPushie Hahaha I did thanks to my dislexia
Yeah I drive a sleeper. Unfortunately it's the engine that is sleeping
Damn I love me a good manual trans sleeper sedan/wagon
....still waiting on that So You Want a 300c Hemi.
I'm gonna have to buy some merch or something and put in the comments 'Do a So You Want a 300c Hemj.'
Looking at the thumbnail any Aussie can tell that VF is making 500hp+ to the wheels.
"so you want a beer canned 1gn Neon with an SRT swap"
Great video! I just pick myself up a 2017 Chevy SS (Holden Commodore) with 20k super charged with 720whp.
When you wish you could say you have a sleeper but It's an econobox.
So You Want a Suzuki Kizashi. I love you.
"So you want a Honda Fit"
But why. I drive them for work and hate it
@@griffinsells2611 it’s sarcasm
I bought a Fit in 2008. Great car. Modified the shit out of it aesthetically and the usual coilovers, wheels, intake, exhaust...I miss that car. The first-gen Fits are fucking SICK, especially with K20 swaps.
@@speedtab215 I'm not
I currently own a 2004 Volvo S60 2.5t that I'm looking to make into a sleeper, and I can tell you personally that a big problem of trying to build a sleeper is a lack of aftermarket support as your vehicle isn't normally modified like you're trying to do so the money isn't there for the big aftermarket companies.
Modern sleeper: Kia Stinger GT. True, looks a little sporty but not blow-your-doors-off sporty.
Its name is stinger.. like sting ray..
They made a hsv gtsr which is a “Chevy” ss on roids, has an LSA in it not an LS3
They made much more than that.
GTSR w1 has a LS9 under the bonnet haha 636hp from the factory
@@EvOFusion and all like 6 of them were "prototypes" that were gifted to people.
@@FXIIBeaver there are 275 of them... and 4 of them were maloo’s which were given to the head development team.
Not prototypes if they’re a registered car and we’re produced. In secret, but still produced.
@@EvOFusion then that must be a different car than what I am thinking about. My bad.
Love that you brought up the 94-96 Impala as a sleeper. You should do a video on just them. Cuz I'm a fan of that year of the first muscle car
Thanks for the AOT spoiler
The Mazdaspeed 6 is the craziest sleeper car I’ve personally encountered. And that’s because I never expected it and didn’t see it coming
Sleeper are fun and great daily drivers. I know plenty of sleepers that sound stock to this day.
With shows like this , say goodbye to sleepers and low prices
That look of instant regret when someone in a sleeper sleeps on your sleeper and gets walked....#priceless
There’s no such thing as sleepers anymore. Anything rocking a set of brembos out of the box these days are usually quick lol
That Halo reference was on point.
I’ve been waiting for this video for years. My heart is happy
Edit: I jumped the gun an saw the ss on the thumbnail an got excited 🤧 dedicated ss video 😫
Only one view and 29 comments?
Makes sense.
I actually wanted to build a sleeper car at some point but not too long ago I didn't have enough money for it.
Sleeper is good when you don't want looks attractive but want a fast car.
Ok boys, its one thing to show the fourth season opening, but to show a big fight scene might be a little to spoilery for the community
Hondas are the ultimate sleeper. No one takes them serious til its all over.
After driving a slightly modified G and a stock Altima. An SS or G8 would be my ideal next car
My next car WILL be a 2017 Chevy SS. Love that virtually nobody knows what they are. Chevys best kept secret.
I'm glad that MAZDASPEED 6 was there. Yes they have speed in the name, but no one really notices that anyways. Plus debadge very common
Honestly a sleeper is the best it’s like someone testing you and you answer with whooping them
I daily a 450whp 06 Subaru legacy GT. It surprises a lot of people.
@9:30 Sleeper car Chevy SS? But without the sleeper car price. Used these things go for over $42K!!!
If I see an old Volvo at a meet, I automatically assume it's a sleeper
A sleeper is worth it especially if you live in a country like Australia that has strict car modification laws. my 96 integra is a sleeper and cops don't bat an eye because I never fixed the faded paint and scratches as well as the dents.
All I drive sleepers.
My supercharged Lexus is250 with 450hp.
MY Chevy SS with 1400hp.
All my other care are fun decently fast daily.
Next is a Durango Hellcat or Ram TRX Hellcat or CT5V blackwing
SO YOU WANT A Z31
I’m glad to see this 🤙🏻
Dude i was literally was thinking about the Chevy SS and wanted one for 3 months
ASAP. Prices going up.
I own one an saw the thumbnail an got excited an realize the reality of the video 😔 not a dedicated ss so you want
Fast GTI’s are sick sleepers. I know a guy with a 500 whp mk7 and you’d never know, if you’re deaf. If you can hear you just think he’s a ricer
gti's are no joke
"sleeper car" with clarion call giga-decibel straight pipes yeah ok
Love the Volvo 960 in the intro
Fun fact
Alex has a super long neck and needs two scarves.
I got 1989 dodge caravan se turbo a turbo minvan with a 2.5 turbo
So you want to work at Fitment Industries
Hey, I love my unsuspecting kia that flies by and uses blinkers on the Houston beltway
Legacy B4 RSK best awd sleeper if it runs. New Zealanders, Aussies and Canadians know what talking about
I had an '87 ( that's in the 1900's ) Buick Regal T type LC. It was a GNX except, it was Blue and had a big chrome grille with all the chrome badges and sim/con top. It was great fun to beat down pretty much anything... as long as I could keep the tires from burning down to the rims!
So you want a Volvo S40/C30/V50 T5
Turn signals i am from Florida, can some one tell me what those are and what they are used for
Only real ones know the vibes from watching AoT in the backseat
Chevy SS is so hard to find nowadays and they haven’t lost much value. Amazing car though!
That’s why that car pisses me off. I thought they’d be very affordable by now instead they’re holding value.
@@luisrosales9349 for real! Having a kid on the way I’m looking for a 4 door v8 that’s easy to mod. Seems it’s this or a charger...
Ford Taurus sho is hands down the best American sleeper. I say this because the new caddy’s with twin turbo v6 and awd still cost to much used for under a 15k sleeper budget. Like slap a 1000$ fuel pump on there and you will be maxing them turbos out!
Lincoln Continental tho.... Same motor, more grandpappy
@@Acrimoniousbear1 no that has the 3.0 tt and it’s freaking expensive asf man 😬 did u not read the under a 15k budget part 😅.
Alex doesn't know the joy of owning a V70R, they're nowhere near as unreliable as people claim they are if I'm honest.. I owned mine for 6 years and did extensive modification to it to the tune of putting down 430 awhp and 480 ft lbs of torque, it walked just about everything on the road in my area aside from a McLaren 570S that I ran into on the highway coming back from work one day. The truth of the matter is that no matter what you choose to be your sleeper car you have to pick the car that you want. You can't just want a sleeper car because you think it would be fun to mod and have a unsuspecting looking car that's fast, you have to live for sleeper cars. Most everyone I know who owns a sleeper dailies that car, it goes with the territory of owning a car of that era.
I live the sleeper car life. Passat W8 wagon. Golf Sportwagen w/4Motion with a Golf R turbo swap. One sounds like Chewbacca the other hurts feelings at stoplights.
I already own one, a tbss aka a corvette suv and I love here.
A Lexus ISF because 99% of people on the road don’t know what they are ,and will assume it’s an IS250/350 Fsport.
It’s old but pricey still.
@@luisrosales9349 I agree , but they had a Chevy SS in the video and they are in the same ballpark of price
That mustang is all I want for Christmas nothing beats the reliability of a classic
The cost of building my Volvo s40 t5 is not fun but in the end it’s all fun to drive... when it drives.
Ouch, Volvo's are super expensive to work on and fix
I have a Mercedes-Benz C450 4matic AMG sedan, ppl don't expect it to be quick/fast, have it Tuned at make 484TQ 444HP & ppl the launch is wyld, stock exhaust too, love driving normally then dusting at the stop & thru TT boost 😂
Genesis sedan r spec one of the best sleepers out there
Wish I got to buy one 🤦🏽♂️
The skoda octavia rs is pretty sleeper. Look like a typical sedan but packs a vw golf gti engine
The attack on titan reference, a man of culture
Can barely find a Chevy SS nowadays. Only a few pop up for sale
I still haven't seen the Cobalt SS nor the speed6
Older Australian commodore cop cars (bt1) are perfect examples, they were the entry level body and styling but with the performance of the top model, with the v8, bigger breaks, stiffer suspension etc. etc. very sought after down under!!
I love my MS6. Just looks like a normal 4 door sedan, but it hauls ass and handles really well, especially given its weight.
The Fact i work for them is actually dope
This guy makes me so engaged in the video i dont want to leave, i dont want it to end...
My sleeper car is my 1988 RX7 with an LS1 in it looks completely stock like a 10th anniversary limited edition car till you put your foot into it and let those 500 ponies dance.
Thanks for mentioning the Subaru Legacy. Dreams!
Congrats , after this video the Chevy SS is gonna rocket up in price lol.
They’ve been pricey, because they are kinda rare. The manual ones Are rare though.
I've never seen one in a dealership

0:42 / Alex literally just described my Infiniti Q50 3.0 Twin Turbo also known as the "Baby GTR" ;)
