Guys,

I'm finally looking for my first JK!
I've been wanting it so long, I have a good idea of what I'm looking for:

2011-2013 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited (4dr)
Dark Saddle / Black Interior
Manual Transmission
Canyon Red

(Jeep didn't make the Saddle/Black interior before 2011)
The newer the better, especially for the engine, but it will come down to price.

Seats can be cloth or leather
Would prefer the soft top, but I can add if missing.
Would like Nav/uConnect, but can also add if missing

Things I will add if it doesn't have:
2.5" Suspension Lift
35" Tires (probably Duratrac) (custom wheels & re-gear)

I am located in Tampa, FL, but I will travel to pick up (even several hundred miles) if it is the right JK.

Please let me know if you see JKs like this for sale.

Thanks!

 

Go for the '12, or newer. Especially if you plan to go to 35s.

 

def a 12 or 13. you want the new engine

 

Thanks!
Is that mostly because if the extra engine power?

 

^^^^^^^ yes

 

Yes. 85hp; Big difference!

 

If it is going to come down to price, prepare yourself ! I recently bought a used 2012 loaded Sahara Unlimited. The original sticker was just shy of $40,000. The prices are not dropping much on the used ones, and the Rubicon with the same options will be more.
Sorry if this burst's your bubble but they are really holding their value.

 

There are a lot of good deals on new jeeps. I bought my rubicon unlimited on jan 31 for 30,500 before taxes and freight. I actually got a new 1 cheaper than a used . I only got the premium top and my gig. Only other option that I wanted was tow hitch which I bought from a guy on the forum for$75 and ordered oem harness for $39. The dealership is 1 of the top selling in the area. Might be worth buying in another state.

 

Just a quick bump to see if anyone has spotted one for sale. Still looking...

Looking now for only 2012-2013, but I have expanded my exterior color selection to include black. :-)

Thanks!

 

Finally found what I was looking for!

2012 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited (4dr)
Deep Cherry Red Crystal Pearl Coat[
Dark Saddle / Black Interior
Manual Transmission
Heated Leather Seats
Freedom Hard Top
Navigation
uConnect
Tow Package


I had to get it from Colorado, so I have to wait for it to be shipped in (about 7-10 days).

I would like to get a premium soft top for it, so if you know where I can get one (preferably in Florida), please shoot me a message.
Also looking for a stubby front bumper with winch if anyone has one.

As soon as it gets here, it's going in for lift, tires and wheels. :-)
