I guess what I mean by sleeper cars are cars most people wouldn't consider fast. When I had my GTi I had to listen to many people claim that VW never made a sports car just like I am sure I will hear about mini's. Just because doesn't have 8+ cylinders doesn't mean it's not sporty.
I know! I had a coworker with an A4 3.0 scoff at me when I told him my car had better handling than his. No one really knows the power of the MINI until they drive it... or are... you know... suddenly behind it.
This may be because I live in a farily upscale area and we really dont have a big "ricer crowd"...but almost everyone I know, guys included, absolutely loves my car. I'm a 19 year old guy with a bright red MCS, and I have never been teased.
