The motor in that car can be a very potent powerplant...like posted above it was once mazda engine and could only be had by importing them. Their known for going into 1st gen probes/mx6. IMO could make for an ultimate sleeper!

Ultimate sleeper would be more along the lines of assorted 12 second Dodge Caravans (stock with turbo engine, what more could you ask for?) or assorted turbo bricks (Volvo station wagons and sedans) with LSx's, 2Js, whatever

EDIT: Actually no, any fast Kia would be a pretty damn top tier sleeper
