The German-built YES! Roadster 3.2 will be on display during the 100th Chicago Auto Show from February 6-17.

Due to positive feedback from America, Funke & Will AG has extended distribution of the YES! Roadster 3.2 to North America and Canada this year. For this purpose the company has founded YES! North America Inc.

The current model is equipped with a 3.2-litre V6 motor.

With its 255 hp, the 890 kg two-seater can accelerate to 60 mph in just 4.8 seconds.

If that's not enough, the YES! Roadster 3.2 Turbo advances into the realm of super sports cars.

Thanks to an exhaust gas turbocharger, the same original aggregate yields 355 hp, catapulting the driver of the mere 930 kg roadster from 0-60 mph in just 3.8 seconds with a top speed of 175 mph.

A specially developed rear spoiler ensures the necessary downforce to keep the 355 hp safely on the road. If more power is required there is an option for a 415 hp upgrade pushing the YES! Roadster 3.2 turbo almost to the magic 200 mph barrier.
