New member here. I went to the Detroit auto show for a special event and snapped some photos of the wranglers on display here.

It looks like the preproduction Sahara has cup holders in the floor and back headrest with leather. I’m still not sure why that did not make it into the final build.

Edit: The Sahara also has a fuel door here. I understand that the other vehicles have mods, but I think it’s still a bit deceiving.

Sorry for the out of order photos, they just loaded that way. Great to see these different models in person. I can say that coming from a TJ, these new Lj’s are pretty refined. FCA are going to sell a ton of these, and that slider power top is going to be a huge selling point as well. Just awesome vehicles!

That looks like the Sahara that I saw in LA. The headrest hit the cup holders before anything else when the seats folded down. If you put any weight on that folded down seat it might damage the headrest over time.

Great pics! Thanks for posting.

That red dash on the Yella Hella just begs for a Ronald McDonald sitting inside. Thank goodness it should be easy to change.

There are those mysterious blacked out Rubicon stock wheels again. Why tease?!?!?

Also hilarious when people quote/reply to a post with tons of pics in it...lol.

Looks like the Rubicon will store up to a gallon and a half of rain water on hood in fake vents and widow wipe swimming pool area.

I don't think the Rubicon has fake vents....

Are the gas caps metal or plastic?

And are they standard on Sahara/Rubi's?

I really want those half doors. But I cant help but hate myself for not getting the upgraded audio system.
