Love black! My CJ7 in high school was also black.

X2 about the Gecko Green from another Crush owner. As for black, never again will I own a black vehicle. Even if I suddenly win the lottery and can have someone detail it daily I'd pass on it.

And as was said about the silver. You might as well not even wash it. Ever. You can spend hours detailing it and wonder why you bothered.

Wish they had continued on with the Rescue Green as it was pretty sexy. The metallic red looks pretty good I think and I've seen a few of the Arctic Editions that really do look sharp. Failing that there might be a few of the Cosmos Blue still kicking around.

Black is going to be a pain to keep clean especially if you wheel it.

I'd say silver probably won't show up "trail pin striping" too bad lol.

I find that I like just about every color JK I've seen. I don't think any of them look really bad.

Sahara Tan is the easiest to hide dirt in the desert. I haven't cleaned the outside of my jeep in almost 2 months and from 15 feet away it looks clean.

Got a 2012 in Sahara Tan. Wife and I had to fly from Atlanta to Denver to get it cause there were only 3 (non-saharas) left and they were the only ones that would work with me on the price. Spending 5 days over Thanksgiving week in the Rockies with the new Jeep was well worth the long drive back home.

If you want some actual color but aren't willing to commit to the 2012 "hippie colors," go with Deep Cherry Red. A very attractive and versatile color.



EDIT: Nevermind, op said no reds. I vote for BFG, then.

My vote's for BFG. I really like the Black Forest Green. My next one would be a Sahara Tan if I can find one, Then a BFG.

BUT Rescue Green will forever be my main choice now.

I know you didn't have this as an option. But i got the tan as it is different than any other cars. and don't see many jeeps out there with it. Looks good blacked out as well. No scratches on the trail and i run those branches up and down and side to side all over my jeep. Just throwing it out there.

Like the other posts above said - Sahara Tan. (if u can find one) This color looks amazing! Big fan of the scheme when paired with black. Plus you don't see the tan that often. Very rugged looking, and I don't even own that color.
