NanoBreeze Brings Ionic Air Purifying To The Car

Still scrubbing to get that smell of hooker's spit out of your car? Have no fear—it's time to ditch the scented cardboard tree in favor of something a little more high tech and a lot more successful in eliminating life's unfortunate odors. Rather than masking odors in cars, the NanoBreeze oxidizes all of the airborne baddies making your vehicle stink worse than a high school cafeteria. Air oxidization is the same type of technology that Sharper Image sells like hotcakes, but now it's available in a miniature version that can hook right up to an air vent. The one downside is that it requires power via the 12V DC power outlet, which is never required by cardboard tree cutouts or circular gel discs. The larger model is available for $66 and the mini (pictured) goes for $26. [Nanobreeze via GadgetGrid]

Like the rest of the Sharper Image line, does it come with the OzoneGuard option for that new car smell?

If that's the mini, does the "larger model" install in place of the the windshield?

Does it get rid of the dead hooker smell in the trunk though?

This wouldn't be needed if everyone did as they were supposed to and used RENTALS when soliciting prostitutes...

The other downside is that it doesn't work. But hey.

But wait! Call now and receive a second Nanobreeze for FREE. Give it to your wife so she can enjoy driving without that gigolo-funk permeating her car.

@MazdaEric: Okay I give, what's that from? The only thing I can think of is Mr. Wolf in Pulp Fiction and that wasn't the trunk.

If you need any kind of air freshener, you're not keeping your car clean. You are a dirty, dirty person.

This will go well with my magnetic fuel-line gas saver and stick-on cell phone signal booster.
