850's don't make the best sleepers...they do look fairly sporty to begin with, especially an R with low pro tires, wing, etc. I think cars are more sleeper when they don't appear to have any performance potential at all. I guess if you have a stock looking 850 turbo making 240+ at the wheels, you have a mini-sleeper...but it's nothing like a stock looking Plymouth K-Car running 10 second ET's, or even a crapbox CRX sporting a turbo VTEC under the hood running deep 11's. THOSE are sleeper!

On the Mustangs...I had a '91 5.0L. When I started getting spanked by VTEC Preludes, I got rid of it. :angry:
855 Turbo Automagic
4 gears, 5 cylinders, 7 seats...13 seconds.
