Based on that swatch, I’m guessing this is Sting Gray.

Just joined the site and I chuckle when I think about how discouraging it was to never be able to paint my primer-gray '57 Ford back in the day; now folks WANT that color (LOL)! How times have changed!

I wish they'd come up with an olive green or even a "Hunter-green" type color like my F-150 (Green gem)? That butt-ugly chartreuse color and this new "Mojito" aint my cup of tea.

Why haven't we seen a rendering of the Sting Gray, like someone did with the all the other colors? I'm not proficient in photo editing, but someone should pull the color sample from the brochure swatch and the beadlock trim ring and see what they can come up with. I would like to see all of the colors in one post too. I know that most of them are in this thread, but it would be interesting to see them all together.

We were told at the LA launch that the late availability colors would become available March-April 2018.

Five additional colors are now showing in the system for the 2018 JL Wrangler for all trims (Sport, Sahara, Rubicon).

The red highlighted ones below cannot be ordered yet so as of now they are considered late availability. We'll see if that changes.
  • Nacho Clear Coat
  • Mojito! Clear Coat
  • Punk'n Metallic Clear Coat
  • Ocean Blue Metallic Clear Coat
  • Sting-Gray Clear Coat
  • Billet Silver Metallic Clear Coat
  • Firecracker Red Clear Coat
  • Granite Crystal Metallic Clear Coat
  • Bright White Clear Coat
  • Black Clear Coat

The black and white background is throwing me off. I need to see a "normal" color picture of it to wrap my head around it.

Amazes me that they insist on offering 3 gray/silver colors but the other new colors have to be late availability. Anyone else find that dumb? GM does the same dumb things. They never offered a brighter blue on the 5th gen camaro, now with the 6th gen at least they have hyper blue.

Not dumb. Colors are a small percentage of cars sold compared to non-colors (white, black, gray, silver). Probably even more so on SUVs.
