Which bit?Ironically the engine is only 12cc different to the original. Could almost just send the logbook off with the new engine number

No, a RX-8 would be 2616cc according to the DVLA.

AMG E63 engine in a Hilux…
Subtle looks, but not so much on the noise side of things.

I haven't been back to this thread in a year or more, but I'm glad to see that the same discussion is happening.
"No, that can't be a sleeper because car enthusiasts would think an old/interesting car is fast"
"No, that can't be a sleeper because the general public think that any German/premium car is fast"
Why don't people just concentrate on posting up photos, rather than trying to be cleverer than everyone else?

Well you would only have about 3 people posting then "No, that can't be a sleeper because car enthusiasts would think an old/interesting car is fast"

Very few of what I'd consider genuine sleepers show up on here.
I see a lot that would be perfect, but then for some reason they've blacked out the badges and stuck a bubble number plate and maybe some extra bright led bulbs.
These cars have had about £50 and an hour spent on them to make them subtly different, and would take about the same to make them back to 100% standard looking if that is what they wanted, and would be free if they kept the original bits. But for some reason people don't seem to.
I can't tell if a sleeper is really niche and actually people like to discuss the idea but secretly crave more attention. Or if the first rule of having a sleeper is you don't go drawing attention by posting about it on the internet and what we see here is the tip of the iceberg.

I had a G6E Turbo and friggin loved it. They go well hey.Yes they do. I tried to make this conversation look as factory as possible so no giant intercooler or aftermarket air intake. Made 355 rwhp on 6psi.
Small world, my neighbour over the road is Terry from BPT. Has some good things on his driveway some days.
