Why don’t they offer more metallic paint colors that aren’t just different tones of gray/silver or flat colors.
They do...and each one is available to order for exactly 6 weeks and 4 days. That's not really an exaggeration, either.

Tuscadero
Punk'n
Snazzberry
High Velocity Yellow
Etc.

If I had the means for an expensive toy, I’d have a highly modded 392 in Tuscadero. Love that color

I agree. I wish they would offer the old schoold Porsche 70's metallic paint:
Ice Green Metallic

Copper Brown Metallic:

Then interiors. This was all the rage for a while:

Lobster Red Interior is the best (especially the furry carpet they used for a while):

I believe I'm in the minority here, but I would've loved the option of a matte paint.

You would think that the most capable offroad vehicle on the market would come with a stealth/matte paint option from the factory. Especially considering the inevitability that they're going to get much dirtier than most other vehicles.

Not everyone wants a shiny jewel. IMO, matte paint on the Jeep would just look so much cooler and utilitarian. With gloss paint, you're subconsciously going to always want it looking it's "best" & cleanest... at least that's how my brain operates.

Maybe one day if I find a spare kidney on the ground, I will use it to pay to have my Jeep covered in matte PPF ... Rant over

People want beige and gray.

Gray cars parked in front of beige houses in gray cookie cutter neighborhoods, following bland influencers telling them how to fit in with everyone else. They've had everyone around them sucking the life out of life since they were children and they just don't know any better at this point.

Not everyone. But far too many. And they drive the sales figures.

Jeep does fun colors just in somewhat limited runs. I personally would love if they borrowed F8 Green from the Dodge side. I'd build another CJ inspired JL with that color in a heartbeat.

I love this color so much and totally would love a JL in it. I do love my Punkn though. Its the best orange they have done IMO.
