Oh yeah - this is looking very promising!!

I had basically resigned myself to white, but now I am considering white, cosmos, dozer (if its that J7 yellow - that is nice!) and winter chill. Looking around for pics of normandie blue metallic and graphic yellow now. (If anyone has a good link, please share.) I really love the deepwater blue pearl, so I hope winter chill is along those lines.

All in all, I think it is looking pretty good for 2012!

I like the color choices now. I was planning to go with black but now I'll wait to see what winter chill and header orange look like first.

Alright! New colors sound awesome! Too bad about the sahara tan getting dropped so early.

Three Cheers to new colors! Now the issue becomes how long to wait to see what they look like before pulling the trigger on a factory order.

Default 2012 Nav.

Equipment restrictions:

Garmin navigation radio 430N (RHB) will not be available until December 2011

Milous,

does this mean that there is no factory Nav when order banks open or just the Garmin unit?

I think that means only the 730N is available initially.

My first impressions of Dozer is that it will be a construction machinery colour. Sort close to dandelion.
Jeep Green is still the best colour that ever graced a Jeep Wrangler. This black forest green looks almost as good and Im so glad they are dropping Natural Green as its so Fugly!
mango Tango got dropped already? mmmm header orange.. that sounds like its going to be close to the older Sunburst Orange where it has red tinge to it. I LIKE.

I want the pentastar engine in my Jeep!!!! damn.

Really curious about Dozer and Black Forest Green. I do like the current Green and Yellow colors.

My guess:
Dozer - Less bright, more orange hints, matte finish instead of gloss (like construction equipment)
Black Forest Green - closer to an army green, but a bit darker.

Sorry to hear Jeep Green is not in the line up. I sure like my green. But oh well.
