That was a pretty cool video and I must agree with everything he says. Being a car guy myself I have a number of loud and obnoxious cars but I completely get the whole sleeper thing.
Many years back when had very little money I owned a late 80's LeBaron Convertible with the 2.2 Turbo motor. The car looked like a pile of crap but with about $2K in mods to the engine and trans the car would run consistent 13.2 @106-107. Needless to say this caught a lot of people off guard. A low 13 sec car was not that common back in the late 90's.
Goes to show those Buicks can put a hurtin on most. The GS455 was the first to do this, followed by the Grand National. Now the s/c Regal.
