Nacho people speak up. I was lucky that when I needed a Jeep in 2019 they had a 2018 Nacho JLU at the dealer as a loaner with only 5000 miles. I don't drive much, only 36K miles, but it is a mile and a half to the nearest maintained road. I have had no issues except for the battery. Would love to see the 2025 in Nacho and my daughter is watching for a Punk'n comeback.

Dream Jeep in the picture man...that color just pops.
Live in a tropical climate...that color would go super well for everything.

If I were to come up with a color selection it’d be sth like this:

permanent/no cost:
  • Sting gray
  • Sarge green
  • Gobi
  • Ocean Blue
  • Firecracker red
rotational/extra cost:
  • White
  • Black
  • Silver
  • Forest green
  • Nacho orange
  • Hella yella
  • Tuscadero pink
  • Hydro blue
  • Bikini blue
  • Inca gold (not sure about this being the name of the color, but you probably lnow which one I mean)
Having said that… I doubt I would change my Ocean Blue for any other color right now!

2018 JLU Sport Punk'n Metallic
when I ordered my first jeep in 2018 i thought i wanted ocean blue. i reallly really liked that color, but when i saw it in person it changed to purple a lot. thankfully the dealer i looked at had damn near every color that was offered. Then i was really confused lol. The day i ordered mine, was a cloudy day and i test drove a 6spd. i saw the orange and loved it, decided that was what i wanted. I like the military type colors but personally ive always liked the skittles colors on jeeps. Life has a strange way of working out, Punkn came back, and the opportunity to order my 2023 presented itself and i jumped on it. I seriously think i would have held onto the 19 if Punkn hadnt come back and just changed the clutch. what did piss me off was the color was a 9xx option on the 23 and was less then 500 i think on the 19. The only other color i would seriously have considered was the Snazzberry. i love that shade of red.

as far as new colors, i would love to see a wrangler in Inferno Orange, like was on the corvette for a few years, and Toyota has on their trucks. Its a gorgeous heavy pearl orange. other then that i wish they would come up with some other colors other then grey grey and grey.
When the wife and I were looking for a used JL in 2020 we had many local CO options here, but wanted a 6 speed and a cool color. Saw the Bikini Pearl and really liked it but didn't love it. Saw a Punkn in SD with only 3600 miles on it and was around 31k - base JLU, but had 33's and Rubi Rock sliders on it already. Wife loves the Punkn and stands out from all the white, gray and black Jeeps in the area. =) love your Jeep btw

Granite Crystal Metallic, a color that isn't a color. I've always been partial to greys.

Bought mine used and this was easily my preferred of the options at the time. Had Punkin Orange been there I would have grabbed it, Punkin with Brown leather would have been my dream.

I need a light color orange or yellow. Hopefully one will make a comeback soon since they took out high velocity yellow. Maybe at the end of 25 or begging of 26 that color will come.

I'd be very salty if I bought a 25 bright white and 26 comes out in nacho...

2023 JL Willys - Reign
I got Reign, which was the exact shade of purple I was waiting for, so I'm a happy camper.

I’m so glad I had the ability to get my first jeep when Gecko was available. I’d been eyeing a wrangler when the JLs debuted due to mojito but jumped on it in high gear when gecko came out. Make me smile every time I look at it.

That color is unique. Your picture looks amazing, and makes me wonder what actual unique colors are there to pick from now other than earl and bikini?

The rest seem standard to me and not having a yellow or green option really seems bizarre...makes me hopeful of other colors that may come in soon.

Mango Tango was a limited run between 2010-2011 and I don’t think it has ever made a return. I love my 2010 Mango. There were two more in my area but sadly one was not cared for and I think it went to the junk yard due to rust, the other one seems well loved.

I really liked my JK in Commando green. Gator was almost the same shade. I likes Tank and Rhino too. I bought white when I got mine because it’s a timeless color, and there was nothing out I really liked. I’m not a fan of flake or pearl added to colors, although there are that have it that I do like.
Real talk, if Gobi, hella yella, pumpkin orange, nacho, or smurf blue don't comeback for 25 or 26 I'm probably going to go bright white for the reason you mentioned....it's just classic man.

Might even switch the new Willy's grille with the old one if bright white is the choice.
