Not a single blue, punk'n or stinggray in inventory in the Detroit area.
Breakdown:
White - 29%
Black - 21.5%
Dark gray (granite) - 18.5%
Light gray (silver) - 17.5%
Red - 13.5%

Pardon my french, but that's the boringest effin' collection of colors for Wranglers I could have dreamed of.

2004 Honda Accord coupe, V6 6-speed manual; ordered 2018 JL Sport 6MT with A/C and anti-spin. D status.
Most car buyers are boring people who want boring colors these days. Dealers recognize this and mainly order those colors, perpetuating the problem.

Do your part for the world. Order vehicles in cool colors. The world needs more color.

A van and a boring car
While I agree with the general sentiment, IMO Firecracker Red is a pretty good color...
I agree, the red color pops. I'm a pretty big fan of white cars too but they need to be accented correctly. Black and gray though.... No thanks boring

I'm a bit biased because I have the Firefracker Red, but yea man...nothing boring about it lol
Pretty in your face, actually. Cooler than the blue, in my opinion. Not the orange, though. Nothing can beat the orange.

Dodge Durango, Ford CMAX, Punk'n Jeep on the way
I am pretty sure the Punk'n that I ordered really is the best color. ;)

The red’s ok, but it’s a lighter red by a shade than previous Jeep reds, and it pales (pun intended) in comparison against them. For example Flame Red, the color of my 1992 Cherokee. There should be a green that isn’t the color of Japanese melon liqueur. Y’know, something foresty. I like the Nacho and the yellow, but you might as well call them 2019 colors by now.

Am I whining? Yes. But seriously, almost 5 months post-release and there’s only five colors in inventory? (And really just one “color”)

I’ll concur with kthers. The Red is far from boring. Pops nicely

But I know what you’re saying. We’ve been spoiled with tons of color options over the years with the Wrangler

Shocking that the only colors on the lots are the ones that are available so far huh ?!?! Lol
We will file your response under: doesn't get what the OP means but just wants to make a jerky comment.

There was a poll on this forum and it was something like 48% of the forum had some sort of gray/silver. I guess it happens when FCA releases like 7 colors of which 3 are silver/grey

I’m a firecracker red jeeper. It will be my first “colored” vehicle. The only other color I would have really loved is sting gray. I’m not a fan of gray cars in general, but that one is something else.
