The Saleen N2O Focus Is All that Plus a Great Value
Introduced only last year, the Saleen N2O Focus has already proved it's got the muscles to back up its chiseled looks in the highly competitive sports compact market place. Equipped with the handling, aerodynamics, power and styling for which every Saleen automobile is famous, the N2O Focus sports one other innovative feature: an engine that comes "nitrous ready." This is no add-on aftermarket kit. Rather it's a fully integrated system, designed and engineered by Saleen's factory engineers. It's installed right on the assembly line in the Saleen factory as the N2O focus is being built. You can't purchase a similar system from any other car manufacturer.
"During development we evaluated both turbocharging and supercharging, but our real world research out on the 'streets' led us to the nitrous ready concept" said Steve Saleen. "As we expected, the N2O Focus has been a hit with Gen Y buyers. They like being able to purchase it from a fully certified Saleen dealer" Saleen continued. "They also appreciate the ability to finance the car. And that, unlike most other similar cars, it comes fully equipped so they don't have to lay out several thousand dollars after taking delivery to add all the performance features we build into every N2O Focus at the factory.
"But while the N2O Focus has succeeded in attracting the 2Fast 2Furious crowd, we've also discovered the car has much broader appeal. Enthusiasts from age 16 to 96 are buying the N2O Focus. These are sophisticated performance buyers who tell us they might otherwise have chosen a Mini Cooper or an Acura RSX.
"A lot of our N2O Focus customers really like our industry-leading 'power on demand' concept" Saleen added. "Flip a switch and you've got an extra 75 horsepower under your right foot. For those other times, you can enjoy the fun of tooling around and looking 'bad' in a high-performance sport coupe that's also giving you more than 30 miles per gallon."
