Rare colored Wranglers

**Fargo** · 12-10-2008, 01:42 PM

Lets see some Wranglers that are more rare in color. For TJs I know the following colors were a bit rare.

- '97 green
- some purple color
- Silverstone
- Amber Fire
- Inca gold
- Impact Orange
- Magenta

Or rare limited edition TJs.

Rubicon Sahara
Apex
Columbia
Willy's
Tomb Raider
Anniversary Editions

For JKs:
- Rescue Green (EDIT- Sorry, I just remembered this is a JK color. It was not offered on a TJ.)

So lets see what you have. Tell us what color it is and the years it was available.

Dont know if its "rare" or not, but detonator yellow was only offered on 07-08 JK's for a $250 premium. I havent seen any others in the wild except mine. Ive seen many TJ's in yellow, but no JK's.

Going along with yellow, how about Malibu Yellow used on the YJ Islanders. I don't think I've seen any in person (and only a few Islanders in other colors) much less any yellow YJ's. Of course, I know there's at least one other on this site...maybe more.
Years...not sure, I think '88-'89 through '93-94.

Inca Gold, only offered in 2003. I've only seen two others in person, i think.

Yeah, I dont know the production numbers on it. The majority of the JK's around here are 4 doors, and either black, red rock, or jeep/ rescue green.

That inca looks awesome!

Here is my 1998 TJ manufactured in 1997 with 1997 moss green paint.

Lapis Blue only in 97, I have only seen one other than mine.

Offered in 97 it wasn't called Rescue Green but it was very close. Anyone know the pale green name?

**grogie** · 12-10-2008, 06:22 PM

Electric Lime Green was also a bit on the rare side for TJ's. I wish it had been available for '06 as I would have ordered it.

I think it was available for '04 and '05.

brunosplace - I've never seen that Lapis blue before. It MUST be rare. It looks like a nice color.

A Jeep this color actually came up in another thread. Thats what prompted me to start this thread. Someone said it was called Citron Green.
