What's a good American car for a sleeper.
4 door sedan that can match up with Supercars on a highway for reasons.
Funny question right.
Lol American Cars Amirite?

Trucks are the easiest answer. An old work truck commands zero respect, but most of them have engines capable of pushing serious numbers and drivelines that can take the power without exploding. Pretty much any truck based SUV is also an option.
Malaise era sedans like the Dodge Aspen or Pontiac Bonneville also work as long as you address the weak driveline. They're dated old pieces of shit that no one would give a second look except for disgust. They've all got smog choked V8s that can be opened up pretty easily.
>truck top speed
>100-110mph at absolute most and you would need a deathwish to push 90
Anyways the answer is a gray import japanese car with an American badge (modern cars aren't built in America either) and k20 swap it.
>5.7L Hemi Rams, Vortec 6.0 GMT800s, and 5.0 Coyote F150s are all old enough to sell for four digits and draw zero attention
gay detected. Besides, there's plenty of shit you can do to old squarebody trucks to improve handling characteristics at speed. Trying to K20 swap a badge engineered car is not only moronic and inefficient for the purpose, but also not in the spirit of answering OP's question as asked.
Besides, a K20 swapped Laser is going to cost a hell of a lot more to make into a proper sleeper than converting a C/K truck to coils and pushing 500hp out of its 350.
I pushed my jellybean f150 to its 98mph limit a few times so maybe you're just a homosexual.
Modern trucks are pretty stable at 140+mph.
You do not need to swap a turbo Chrysler if you know what your doing lmao
You’ve answered yourself already. A Hellcat won’t embarrass you against anything in the open road.
Kek moron, good luck tracking a hellcat on a car this top heavy.
People will think you are a pig. Only pigs drive these. Also, Ford.
Chargers are reverse sleepers. They're assumed fast and then some turn out to be V6's
The old Buick Regals.
Modded SHO.
Correct.
The 2018-2020 Buick Regal GS wasnt a slouch at 310hp and AWD but a Kia stinger would outrun and drive circles around it every time.
Correct answer is the 3.0T Lincoln MKZ.
>Looks like a boring grandpa car
>visually identical to base and hybrid models with 188hp
But
>3.0 twin turbo V6 with 400hp/400ft.lb
>torque vectoring AWD
>rear LSD from Focus RS
>adaptive suspension
>Same 0-60 as Taurus SHO
>growing aftermarket support site to the 3.0 Nano engine being used in Bronco Raptor and Explorer ST
Luxury cars can't be sleepers in America. It's not like Europe where you see small diesels in big luxury sedans. In America when you buy a luxury vehicle it's generally expected that it's also going to be fairly quick or fast.
If anything these are reverse sleepers. You would expect a gussied up Taurus to be quick but in reality these are only as quick as a F-150 with much less performance potential.
It's a Lincoln, that brand has been seen as for geriatrics for years, not performance enthusiasts.
What american sleeper car looks like a mini cooper?
>American sleeper car
>looks like a Mini Cooper
This is your brain on Dodge.
Anything with that 3.5 Ecoboost
Explorers, Taurus, F150s, Flexes, Transits etc
those thing pull and make big power with a tune
Lincoln Mkz with the 3.0t and Awd
>Funny question right.
No. American cars have always been this way. If it's fast the owner wants everyone to know. Sleeper cars are more of an overseas preference, hence why their performance variants are more subtle.
Americans don't make sleepers.
Are you purposefully trying to kill me m8?
I only ever see basketball Americans and coalburners driving those thing
Last-gen Taurus SHO is the only one I can really think of. You can tell a Charger Hellcat or whatever is fast just by looking at it, but the SHO looks like a boring fleet car while already being pretty quick out of the box and having the insanely tuneable Ecoboost 3.5, you can make close to 450hp with just a cheap flash.
Seems nobody knows what a sleeper is anymore. A fricking hellcat mentioned in the thread. OP if you're for real about wanting a sleeper it's gonna take time and money converting something that was slow coming out of the factory line, something that doesn't have a presence on the road. While there's a shitload of pathetic V6 mopars on the road nobody is gonna be impressed or caught off guard with you in one.

What is a supercharged hemi V8 for 100 Alex
Caprice ppv with turbo
Auctioned police AWD Taurus, paint it a non cop color. They only saw limited service in few areas so it's not seen as a stereotypical cop car.
The frick's a sleeper homie?
Impala SS 1996
Dodge Spirit RT
GMC Typhoon and GMC Syclone
Chrysler 300 SRT8
>Impala SS 1996
Not fast without an obscene amount of mods. A shitbox granny mobile that looked totally stock with a supercharged LS would be pretty sick. No way it would actually keep up with a "super car" in anything but the 1/4 mile though.
>Dodge Spirit RT
Good luck finding one, even more luck keeping that high strung extremely limited production turbo from the most complicated era of engine design from a defunct manufacturer (lotus).
>GMC Typhoon and GMC Syclone
These are old enough that they stick out more than go unnoticed. And also no GMC is gonna hang with a super car unless its on a fully built chassis.
>chrsyer 300 srt8
Almost. Best option - get one of the older 09/10 models pre-facelift, but with the eagle 5.7 hemi and AWD. Stick a cam & a supercharger in that thing and you would surprise a lot of people
My personal favorite choice though is the Cadillac CTS-V wagon (manual). Probably what Jesus would drive if he returned today
