When I think of "sleeper", I don't necessarily think of the fastest thing around, but, a vehicle that is a lot faster than anyone expects it to be.

Obviously, my Longhorn is not going to be a 13 second machine, just faster than a typical old 3/4 ton truck.

RE; Chevelles. I think of the third gen Chevelle as more of a sleeper because they had been neutered by low compression. A four door 70 Chevelle would be a sleeper.
