I gotta be honest. I ordered a Punk'n Sahara based on the marketing photo that looked like a muted Copperhead. When I saw the bright orange photos from Cleveland, I went by the dealership yesterday and ordered an Ocean Blue Sahara.

If anyone is interested in the Punk'n Sahara, it will arrive at Helfman Jeep in Houston in two weeks. Call my salesman, Nick Tancredi, at 469-360-4260 to inquire about it.
I am with you just talked to my dealer, going Red Firecracker, working with the dealer to get the change done with no cost, did your dealer ask you for any charge for the change?

Same! For those like me that are on eggshells about the dash color, I ordered the black seats and my buildsheet lists "Silver Platinum I/P Bezels" with no mention of a red dash or dash color specifically anywhere.

My guess is the I/P stands for instrument cluster? Hoping that includes the dash!
I am glad to hear that you heard as well. I was getting a little impatient.

I’m glad to see the silver dash but does anyone know if the black leather still has the red stitching on the seats, shifter, and steering wheel?

I hope my Punk'n is coming with red dash and stitching.

If not, I will get them swapped out with one of you that do.

We haven't seen a pic of a Punk'n or Mojito Rubi with black interior yet to know.

I think it's safe to assume it'll have all red stitching. The badges on the car are still red.

I'm betting it's only the red dash that's swapped out for silver on those two colors. The rest of the build will match the other colors.

If anyone is in Missouri, my original order that I placed will be available once it is built. I am sure they will make a good deal to move it, and if someone wants it when it arrives let me know and I will let you know the price they agreed to for me on the order.

Since my order was being delayed anyways, I reached out to Kim in Conway and she was able to beat even the great deal I had by quite a bit. My local dealer refused to budge from my prior quite so I am having Kim place the order now and I will just go pick it up when it arrives. I am also going to have them put on the 35” tires before delivery, and still coming out ahead.

I almost switched over to Sting-Gray since it was available, but decided to stick with Punk’n after looking at the pictures again and having my daughter explain why orange is better.

Seriously, if anyone on this thread is willing to order out of state you should check out Superior Jeep in Conway Arkansas. Kim is the internet sales manager and is awesome to work with.

Ok, you can't make a statement like that and NOT let us know what her explanation was. I love Orange too, but I'm not sure how I would explain it to anyone. I'm all ears...:like:

You can now select black cloth interior for your build.
I guess one really has to see the color in person. So far, it looks quite reddish in almost all the photos I have seen posted with very little metallic indication.

I wanted this color SO BAD but now I'm not sure. Thankfully my local dealer has one on the way for another buyer so I will get to see it, but man I really want to get my order in so I have my new Jeep for the short Northwest summer!

Well not sure it will help much, but since she is 7, it basically comes down to because she said so.

Some of her reasons were that it will match the Sunset, it will match her sunglasses, it’s her favorite color, and there are too many black, grey and white cars already. She has wanted an orange wrangler for a few years, so I figured why not. ( I also lthe look and color in general

Well, that's one very lucky girl! All I hear is "Dad, please please please get another Jeep!" They are 12 and 14 and I'm sure my oldest just wants to steal it when she gets her license. I'll get the Jeep, but I am sort of obsessed with getting an orange one, but it has to be the right tone. I loved Mango Tango and was hopeful this would be in the same family. The wait continues...

Hi, No, they were very gracious about my request to make the change. I ordered the same options for an Ocean Blue Sahara with black leather interior.

Well, they updated the builder on the Jeep website last night, and now you can build a punk’n with black interior...

And it gives it a red dash.

Are the three stooges in charge on the website and they “fixed” it only to have it still be wrong? Or do red dashes really come on punk’n and mojito and we were all told silver by mistake?

Hmmmm...
