For the most part, we want our fast cars to look as badass as they are. Sometimes, we even make them look more badass than they are. The problem with a fast looking car, however, is that everybody expects it to be fast. People stare waiting for a cloud of smoke and a dramatic take-off; depending on the car, people point and take pictures; cops are more likely to give you a ticket because "that fast car" caught their eye.

This is why some people prefer a sleeper: a car that looks unimpressive, but conceals all of the mechanical goodness of a bona fide sports car. When the minivan smokes a Mustang at the stop lights, people are shocked, amused and impressed. That's why today we're featuring The Best Stock Sleeper Cars of All Time. Time to wake up and smell the exhaust fumes.
