Default Right Hand Drive JK

I was on my way to work today and saw a right hand drive JK. Has anybody else ever seen one? I didn't think you could buy one like that in the states.

I saw one last Sunday when I was washing my JK. It belonged to the mail lady. She said she ordered from the same dealership I bought my jeep at. It was white w/khaki int., hardtop. Everything inside looks the same just opposite, except that the parking break is still on the left hand side of the console.

Yeah, you can get um. Although it ain't a JK, the lady that delivers our mail (we live on a rural route) has a right hand drive Cherokee. It ain't converted, either. It was born that way. It's pretty cool.

I saw one of these on ebay that I thought was pretty crazy. It would probably be fun for a weekend thing, but I am not sure about it being a daily driver.

Here is the listing, some pretty cool pics:

...and No I am not selling this.

The dealer that I ordered my JK from had about 4 of them on the lot. Different colors and options. Kind of interesting. But yes you can get one, it's legal, but I'd keep walking up to the wrong side of the car out of habit. lol
