Default 2012 and JK8 kit.

At the jeep dealership and they had this. Hmm 47K, i don't think so. I'd rather buy a jeep AND a truck. geesh.
If i'm not allowed to post this I apologize.

Looks cool, but I have to agree with you on the price, way tooooo much for that. I could build a badass JKU for that price, and still have some left over. At least Jeep is on the right track.

It looks cool, (not sure about the Bushwackers, but...) There is still too much that is left unfinished in the conversion. A factory version "should" only cost as much as a stock JK as there is a lot less material in it and would be finished properly or at least better. At $47k or even $40k, you gotta really love it. Talk about depreciation hits.....

It really is an eye catcher but I can't imagine they are going to sell it quickly, but who knows

It looks really good. But it should cost the somewhere between the 2 and 4 door. I wish they would mass produce these.

Thats a barebones X too, for 47K I'd at least want power windows, yikes.

Very pricey for not even getting power windows. Also, from the outside photos it looks as though you have plenty of extra space behind those seats, but in the interior photos it looks like the behind the seats cargo area is filled with the seats themselves. Not too sure about the JK8 now
