CHICAGO (AP) -- German automaker Funke and Will has announced at the Chicago Auto Show plans to sell its two-door Yes! Roadster in North America for the first time starting this summer.

Yes! sports cars, which are handcrafted in Germany, have been sold abroad since 2001.

The distinctive Roadster has gullwing doors, a rounded hood and wedge-shaped sides. It comes with a soft top and/or an optional removable hard top.

The standard Roadster 3.2 starts at $77,995 and has an Audi 3.2-liter, V-6 engine with 225 horsepower.

For $97,995, there's a turbocharged version with 355 horsepower that can hit zero to 60 miles per hour in 3.8 seconds.

The company says it plans to sell 50 Yes! roadsters in North America this year.
