Default New TJ purchase

Hi all, I am looking into buying a brand new TJ that is , if there are any hardly used or with extreme low mileage on them. Was thinking of buying a polaris RZR 4 sweater but when I checked the price I thought why don't I just buy a Tj and modify it , this way I will have a road worthy vehicle plus I can use it offroad . Any thoughts

Where are you located?

TJs with "no miles" are holding window sticker value in the states if not more.

They are holding value. I found one a year ago 2005 LJ rubi 6spd with dual top only 10k miles garage kept, they wanted 26,000 and they got it. I just found a LJ 68k miles in really good condition for about 13,000 on AUTO TRADER best deal i have seen on a nice LJ and I would know I spent all of 2011 looking everyday for a 05/06 rubi in manual but it never happened so I bought a 2012.

Lots of good TJ's out there still. I would try and stay away from SE package, look for a Sport or X package. On the other hand, I also have a RZR and love it! Just to make your choice a little harder.
