Hidden Gems and Sleeper Cars

I'm always on Marketplace looking for gems or good deals and thought I'd make this thread with fellow miscbrahs.

In your guys opinions what are some hidden gems/sleeper cars that are underrated ,doesn't nessecarily have to be a sports car or super fast. Just something that somebody who actually likes driving would enjoy. Something thats well built from factory

Example : 2018-2022 accords that have the 2.0 with 10 speed

I've been looking at 55 or 63 amg cars from the mid to late 2000's. Beautiful cars and powerful engines for relatively little money imo.

My personal dream car is a 2014-18 S6. Those can be had for under 30k right now, which is a lot of car for the money.


I don't like spending a lot of money on an initial purchase of a car, because I usually go HAM on mods lol.

Also check out the W140 S600 with the M120 V12 Pagani Zonda engine. Someone stole this for $25k LOL.

Great years and the last of Mercedes golden age, srs. Those cars will run forever if you properly maintain them.

Dude I work with has a tastefully modified Pontiac g8. Sounds great, 6.2 V8 I think he said.

I think it's a cool sleeper car. You wouldn't guess there's a V8 stuffed in it.

Yeah with me being a povertycel, I think a CLS55 AMG would make a great project car. I see alot for $10k-$18k. The M113k is actually one of AMG's most reliable engine too.

Only thing is, what would you do with that poverty old transmission? Would be great to swap it with a newer 10 speed.

DSM's are sleeper / hidden gems now? At least put up a Laser if you are trying to say a sleeper / hidden gem. Lol, any decent condition 1G or 2G specimen is worth A LOT.
