This thing is *violently* purple. Historic seventies mopar color maybe?

I don’t like the color but damn if I don’t love the fact you can buy one that color.

I’d absolutely rock the purple. So much better than another variation of silver or beige.

I wouldn’t buy a Wrangler, but if I did I wouldn’t rule out this color.

I’m not a Wrangler guy - but the 2 door hardtop with color-matched fenders and top looks very good.

That purple is crazy in a good way. Plum crazy perchance?

I like it but I wouldn’t have gone for the color-matched hardtop. Charcoal grey would look much better.

Now imagine on a Wrangler Unlimited. That’s a lot of purple.

Exactly! Way better than grayscale, props to this person

I bet you’re right, it does look very close to something you would see on a Cuda

Agreed!

OK, so I ran over to the configurator on jeep.com. Here’s what you need to get this cool combo:

Wrangler 2 door

Sahara model (gets the color matched fenders)

Xtreme Purple Perl-Coat paint

Freedom Top Body-Color 3 Piece hardtop

I optioned mine out (with other options as well) to 40K. Yikes!!

Yeah I’ve driven one, the acceleration is actually decent but the driving position, interior quality, etc. are pretty terrible

Maybe a little too much lol

Yikes indeed!! Especially given the state of the interior plastics, I’ve driven one and it’s totally unacceptable for a $40k+ car.

sm70- why not Duesenberg? > Noah - Now with more boost. 11/01/2017 at 14:39

Yup. Lots of my friends own them, and I’ve driven top-spec models; they’re noisy, slow, uncomfortable, steer poorly, flip easily, use a good deal of gas, and most of the people I know who own them are kids whose parents bought it for them because it’s considered cool. I get it, but at the same time, I don’t.

Exactly. I’ve never been into these. They’re mostly used to transport kids like you said, and have an insane number of downsides for the price.

Yup. Although I do have to give props to one of my friends here at uni, his is a 4-door and one of the fully-loaded mall crawler types, but it has a 6-speed stick shift.

yep I can see that being a good time, 3 pedals is so much fun after living in barge land for a bit
