The sleeper looks like a standard family sedan on the outside, but has all the features of a sports car underneath. Sleeper It's designed to blend in with its surroundings, so it doesn't stand out, but when you get behind the wheel, you get all kinds of power in your right foot. The Cadillac CTS wagon and the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG wagon are the best examples of sleepers. Another example is the Honda Accord Coupe. It was a popular car in the early 2000s, but has since fallen out of favor with American drivers. But now it's becoming more popular among millennials and his Gen Z due to its affordability and reliability. In this article, we'll take a look at his 10 sleepers that come back in style we'd love to own. RELATED: Here's Why The Awesome 2nd Gen Acura NSX Flopped Spectacularly

10/10 Cadillac CTS Wagon

Let's start with the Cadillac CTS wagon. It first appeared in 2004 and has been iterated on several times since, but I think this wagon version is beautifully understated and humbly underrated in a good way.

The Honda Accord Coupe is making a comeback in style as we see more and more cars on the road. There are many reasons why the Accord Coupe was a great sleeper in its day and is still used as a sleeper today. It's cheap, fast, fun, and has enough space and features to use as an everyday driver.

The Buick Skylark Gran Sport is also making a comeback in style, which I'm very excited about. It was popular in the 60's and 70's but fell out of favor with the rise of SUVs.

The Volkswagen Passat VR6 is probably the most modest sleeper ever. The VR6 is a great combination of luxury and power with his 2.8-liter straight-six engine with dual overhead camshafts, 48 ​​valves and a timing chain instead of a belt.
