Which "stealth" fast car ?

[MaxA]

True stealth? I’d agree with the VW G60, poverty spec T5, E500 estate, early M5, and Legacy Spec B, but I’d add the (previous generation) 3.0 H6 Outback in silver. Unexpectedly quick. And continues to be quick in nasty conditions. And yet, it's hardly memorable.
Current factory sleepers are a lot harder to find, because they’re all blinged up with DRL's, chrome, gangsta tints. But maybe a beige Yeti 1.8TSI with a remapped engine and DSG on track day tyres?

Indeed. Theres are the point i forgot to mention, that it doesn't look stealthy at all. You can probably see a huge intercooler at the front, and big wheels/tyres, and the stance. If i saw that id know somet was up.

Now take ya face for a st doogz.

Have a break for a day or so, consider your posting style, and come back with the type of attitude we expect here.

As you were gents, back on topic ASAP please.

Perhaps you're just being stealthy??

OOPS! Note to self "read previous posts before putting foot in mouth" DOOH!

[blearyeyedboy]

Can I be stealthy by writing like this?

No?

OK then.

No 820ti exists -it was either Vitesse (mk2)or 820 Turbo(mk1) - but Police used mainly v6 827s and standard no turbo 820 140bhp

It'll be the 827 I was thinking of!

Gentlemen, I present Stealth.

But being serious for a moment, I would contend that 'stealthy' is the wrong description. Perhaps 'unexpectedly' quick?
Another serious comment - I've lusted after a debadged, unadorned E500 for a long while now

Not as stealthy as some, but there is no way I would expect this to have a 2.4L turbo capable of 0-60 in 5.6s.

Mercedes-Benz E500 T, preferably in beige.

4.7-litre, twin-turbo V8 putting out 408 HP, capable of 0-60 in about 4.6-4.8 seconds.

Really?! I knew they were quick, but not that quick!

How bout this?



450 SEL 6.9 if you debadged it very few people would know, nice and subtle

Excellent choice. I think most of us would be proud to have a tidy example on our drives.

Cheers, I'd been thinking about this topic and then I opened the back of Octane magazine and there it was

I was very tempted to debadge mine but have decided not to. Most people wouldn't have a clue what an E500 is in any case or they read it as an E200.
