By the look of the very last interior pic above, there appears to be a new rear seat. as to whether it reclines or not, I am unsure.

 

I was planning on keeping my 08 for at least another year or 2 but if the back seat on the 2013 reclines I'll be trading her in! We currently have the 08 Sahara Unlimited and a 2012 Rubicon so I know the benefits of the new engine first hand but I was still content keeping the 08 for a few more years -- funny how something as small as a reclining back seat can push me over the edge!

 

I'm very happy with my '12. The new seats look good but I think they look to sporty for the wrangler. As for the new lights an stuff, it's not a big deal at all to me and as for the new wheels, maybe its just me but I don't care for them at all. My guess is the GC seats are being used in the Wrangler to save money on production costs. Much cheaper to use 1 vendor than 2.

Agreed. I'm not a fan of the new wheels either. I just got Rubi takeoff's from a 12 so if I trade her, I'll keep my current wheels and sell the 13's.

 

I'm liking the Rubi wheels. I don't care too much for the Sahara wheels...to light. Might look better when I actually see them. I want the Sahara but not sure if I can order the 2013 with the rubi wheels.

 

The added lighting will be nice. Mine's a cave at night.

 

I agree on the color match tops. Both the wife and I didn't care for it.

 

On the lighter colored wranglers I don't care for the color match tops, but the darker colors can pull it off. IMHO.

 

Im pretty sure that they will just be changing the materials and looks of the seats. The seat brackets and such will be the same. I doubt the back seat will recline. If it did, they would definately make it a selling point, and theres nothing mentioned about it in the features page.

IMO, the Rubicon's blood has always run through the 5 star Moab wheels. I think that they are taking away alot of the "Rubicon" with the new style wheels. They kinda look like a version of the Altitude wheels.

That being said, I do like the added interior lights. My late built Rubicon will have the 2013 Alpine system in it, so I got lucky there.
