ferrari enzo in all truth, I’d have to say the V Series Cadillac’s would probably be the bigger sleepers of this era. Majority of the people associate Cadillac as your grandpa’s car still, even with the redesigns. ---

Although an Evo is not by it’s nature very stealthy, I think a car that fast, that looks 95% stock, is pretty stealth. ---

he ran 9.68 on those tires on the car currently… those are custom rims that look like stock but are widened to fit some slicks. At least thats what i thought i read in the mag article that he ran tires on those rims so you couldnt really tell. and yes, i wouldnt think that thing would go 12’s let alone 9’s ---

i guess its just me… i find something sneaky about lieing whats under the hood. i’d rather put it someones face and still beat em leaving no excuses. and i think u guys missed the point… if you are well rounded in cars…you should be surprized… i woul dnever sleep a SHO taurus… if you slept one you don’t know shit about cars anyway then so what the point…you just beat someone that is a moron… no fun in that. thats like pickin on retarded kids. 15 second stock muscle cars…you gotta look at them in their time period… they were heavy hunks on steel… pound for pound and cube for cube they still perform better than a stock civic. you can’t view them against stuff thats not stock… how is that fair? 15 second 383 superbee is cooler than a 11 second civic anyday of the year. thats why GN is the ultimate, GO FAST, LOOK GOOD…with the a/c on.
