    yea, people think my red 00 si is a ex lowered on si wheels. I took all my stickers off the rear and sides to make it look like just another ordinary civic. All you can see is the hks catback, hid's with ctr headlamps and the oem fogs to compliment. I like to keep people guessing.

    A honda cannot be consider as a sleeper anymore or even the 240SX.. just way too many. A sleeper its a car that you would never think is fast we all know that some hondas and 240sx's are fast so there is no surprise.

    haha these kids in a 5.0 fox body asked me if i wanted to race yesterday at the BP in marietta.. haha it had exhaust and mild street cams (from what the driver said).. i told them my car wasnt fast, and they proceeded to tell me they heard my exhaust(its really load, im running an open DP) and saw my gauges and said it was a sleeper and i was probably just chicken to race them..haha i told the kids to get a life and got in my car and gave them a good rev so they could hear the BPV and drove off.. then like a mile or so down the road they were behind me!! then pulled up to me at the next light. and they had a video camera..lol. i had my Friend (girl im dating) in the car and wasnt about to do anything stupid so i just rolled up the windows and didnt pay attention to them.

    My Current GS-R 94 came with cloth interior (almost all of the GS-R's after 94 were leather) It had no badges other than the Acura and the Integra. It also had steel wheels with Acura hub's. Everyone thought it was an LS. It was funny looking at some of their faces when I hit Vtec. Now I don't know what people think, for it has a JDM front and a BC kit.

    i love galant VR-4's... they are true sleepers, especially when they have a few mods, nobody would ever suspect it... hell i used to not know it until one blew the freaking doors off my buddy's wolfsburg jetta (turbo)... then i asked lots of questions and the guy was really cool about it.
    nobody ever thinks my freinds Dakota is fast either... it's an R/T but it has 16" dodge wheels and not the 17's u usually see, and it is a 5-speed (swapped before bought), with intake, exhaust, mild cam... it's sweet, and a pretty good sleeper (runs 13's)

    used to have a 1988 Volvo 740 Station Wagon, 6 Cylinder, Turbo, RWD; only thing on the car that was modded was the exhaust, piping was made bigger. Damn that shit pulled hard. Beat modded eclipses, riced out integras, slow ass civics. Looks on their faces were priceless. Seeing a station wagon fly by them and then their mouths drop open like what the fuck was that... man i miss car.
