Wrong color

[richaudet]

Your dealer will let you order another one with no additional deposit, no forfeiture of deposit. You got an extra JL on their lot, which they can in turn sell for more $$$ than they were going to make with you ordering one. The ones on the lot are worth more to the dealers than special order because most people expect to walk away with a car the same day they go to the dealer - that fetches a premium in a highly desirable vehicle like the JL. With that said, Granite is way better than White. The metallic in the sun is gorgeous and it won't need to be washed as frequently. Either way enjoy.

I would stick with granite. White is not my pick. Had a white car and it always looked dirty.

Ever since I ordered my 2019 Jeep I’ve been stressing out over the color, I ordered Crystal granite and Wish I ordered white ‍
I have $1000 down and just found out it is on it’s way to Canada. Anyone else go through this, what did you do?

The only thing that might really concern me OP is if you posted, "oh, and by the way, those glasses I'm wearing are the real thing and I think they frame my face beautifully."
Otherwise, like Michelle said @MALL R8D , you went with a color because something spoke to you.

You gut has gotten you this far. Consider the possibility you could be extremely happy with either color, or even another one.

Besides, black and white are the easiest colors for the collision guys to match (hence patrol cars often in these colors). When I have to put a second mortgage on my house to pay them, I want to know they earned their keep!

Good luck!

Thank you for all the comments, I’ll take a deep breath and chill out, see how beautiful it is when it arrives.

I feel ya...I want Mojito...no maybe Punkn...man I really like the blue. ...shoot I even like....haha. Seriously hard to decide. Dealer is to order a Mojito and a Punkn both as I want ...then I need to decide. Ugh!!! And don’t get me started on the red.

I've got 6,000 miles on mine, is it to late to change colors? Also I'd like a two door.

the granite is nice especially with red accessories.

Funny- I wanted punk’n first then when I was shopping. Then I test drive a white one and I thought I wanted white.
But then I saw Mojito in person and that’s what I went with.
I love it, but sometimes think I should have gotten something that matches red better because I love red wheels.

My wife would have preferred white...but I went with the better color.

I would have gotten granite for my JL but my husband already has a granite JK, so I went with sting grey. I think you will enjoy the granite. It is pretty

If you have second thoughts, you can always just ask your dealer about options. The worst they can say is you have to keep the current ordered color.

The granite is beautiful but I totally get second-guessing yourself. My wife and I have three vehicles - all white. I had to fight the urge to order the same color because I love the JL white with body color top. I ordered a sting gray (still waiting for it) but several colors are great for my tastes. Really hard to go wrong. If you end up being unhappy you can always trade for the color you want.

I think at one point I was set on each color. I eventually settled on Billet Metallic, its on order so I still have two months to second guess. Its actually really hard to find 2DR Rubis in Silver, good thing or bad thing, I don't know lol. I love them all, except the new Bikini, that is not for me, I was hoping for a lighter Blue honestly

You’re right. That is the wrong one for Canada. You want this one - colour.

There’s no wrong colour on the JL. Doesn’t exist. Even the thousand shades of gray all look spectacular. Beyond that it’s all personal preference.

I went through the same feeling for months waiting for mine to ship. Should I have gone with Mojito! instead of Punk’n? Ate me up inside, day after day, week after week. I gained weight (have proof). Then it was delivered and it all melted away, including the weight.

You’ll be fine.

Thats funny, I debated spelling it that way but yielded to our American friends as they were kind enough to host the forum. I love the Punk'n by the way and had I not asked my wife I would have that in my driveway right now instead of waiting for a factory order

Have not ordered yet but I am torn between the Granite and White also. I am hesitant about the White because parts are known to turn yellowish.

Here in the States deposits for cars are regulated by State, meaning every State is different. They can't keep deposits in some States. Not sure how the deposit thing works in Canada? Check with the Canadian equivalent of your attorney generals office. Or just call your dealer. Explain to them your situation. They might not have any issues with transferring your deposit over to a white one. They can always sell the Granite one to someone else. Assuming Wranglers are as popular in Canada as they are here in the States.

As someone else noted, the white JLs are known to have a issue with the grills and other parts turning yellow. This is a production problem that has not been resolved yet to my knowledge.

I have a white JK and ordered a Mojito, white got boring for me. It never showed scratches which was great but mine also yellowed a lot due to the iron graphite fallout from the blast furnace at work
