Too much silver/chrome. Having said that, someone is going to score those wheels somewhere and paint them black and I think they will look pretty nice.

So all we get is a dressy Sahara?

What a half-assed effort. These things look more and more like Hummers every day.

Well if anyone remembers the 65th anniversary TJs's they weren't that different either and had basically the same painted flare, brushed silver interior treatment

The only thing better was the fact it came it 15x8 Alcoa wheels

This is exactly why I am so glad I bought a JK before 2009. Now they just keep getting more and more ridiculous as the years pass. I thought the COD version was a scam, this is absurd

To each their own but this doesn't really represent the Jeep for the last 70 years does it?

Not impressed...but bedline that front grill, add a new front bumper w/ winch, lift it, throw on some flat fender flares with some black wheels on 35's and that brown color may look pretty nice.

Plus it will hide the mud nicely

Shakes head. My first jeep was a 2004 Rubicon. My new jeep is a 2011 rubicon. WTF were they thinking with this piece of crap offering.
