2012 Jeep Wrangler Sport 4x4
The Jeep Wrangler is something like a Harley-Davidson. It's an anachronism, and should probably be a dinosaur, but no, it's still popular because it fills a need like no other vehicle. Despite its inherent design limitations, (we won't call them flaws), primarily balance and storage, the Wrangler delivers inimitable fun. Challengers have not been able to steal from the allure of the Jeep. The dynasty lives on, Jeep engineers have kept the momentum rolling by making timely improvements. Model year 2007 brought an all new Jeep Wrangler that, (no surprise), looks just like the old Jeep, whatever 'old' Jeep you might be talking about. Can you name one vehicle, (besides the Harley), that has changed its looks less, in 60 years? -Thx to Autoblog.com
For consignment, a 70,975 title verified actual mile 2012 Wrangler in 2 door Sport trim with a top that with some simple wrenching and another helper you can remove the top. Some serious professionally installed exterior and mechanical upgrades as well and we have a true upwardly mobile, (on a mountain), climber that has addressed any of the faults and flaws from the factory to the tune of over $20,000. As our consignor says, "you will not be disappointed!".
Exterior
This 2 door larger jeep tough guy is all wrapped up in menacing Darth Vader Black, a beautiful color. All paint is excellent and the deep end of the pool, with no rust, and nearly factory perfect. Upfront the iconic Jeep grille hovers above a new heavy duty Smittybilt upgradable front bumper with a Smittybilt 10K waterproof winch with a wireless remote. Just below are polished Smittybilt shackles with protectors. An upgrade to high intensity halogen projector headlights is on to help you see your way on even the darkest trail and a mirror relocation kit is on for easy door removal. Linex coated Rough Country step bars allow you to get a good look at the top which is black and hard plastic, so it is very durable. This top resides under a Rhino Rack backbone roof rack that can support up to 500lbs of your gear. Glass is tinted, and on the rear bumper is a class 2 steel tow hitch receiver and lighting kit and above is the swing out spare and high lift jack. The Jeep rides on 17-inch blacked out and drilled Level 8 wheels with Goodyear Duratrac tires LT315/70R17 rubber. This has also been the recipient of a 3-1/2 inch Metal Cloak lift. High and mighty.
Interior
Step up and grab the Smittybilt premium black custom inside grab bars and take in the miles of luxurious black cloth coverings for parts of the door coverings and these box some stain aluminum edging on the pull handle. Also, cloth is reserved for the high back buckets in front and a bench in back. These are near perfect and sport some white patterning on the inserts. On the floors is clean black carpeting covered with off road floor and cargo mats. There is a center console and it rises to the dash which contains a Pioneer AM/FM/Bluetooth/Carplay and back up camera capable stereo with touchscreen and hand held remote. The sounds come from upgraded speakers in the dash, and overhead sound bar with Infinity and Alpine speakers. A Pioneer sub box is in the rear storage area and all the speaker wiring is courtesy of Monster with gold cables and connectors. Some black and silver knobs and vents pepper the black molded dash and in front of the driver are deep inset round gauges with shiny bezels and black faces and white readouts. A white headliner is under the black exterior hard roof.
Drivetrain
Under the hood is a very clean 3.6 liter VVT 24 valve V6 power plant fed by EFI and capable of 285hp. On the back is a 6-speed manual transmission which throws power rearward to dual Yukon gear equipped 4.56 front and rear differentials with hardened axles, custom Jeep covers, chromoly bearings and new axle seals. Our consignor notes that a Eaton TrueTrac differential has been installed in the rear carrier. A Metal Mulisha stainless exhaust system is on for the exhale.
Undercarriage
Underneath is so clean you could have dinner off of it! Here we see the 4 link with coil springs front and rear that have been lifted 3.5 inches with a Metal Cloak lift kit and new Bilstein 5100 series shocks. We see Metal Cloak control arms and drop brackets to adjust camber, Energy Suspension urethane control arm bushings, a Metal Cloak drag link with all new tie rods and TerFlex front and rear track bars and ball joints. A Bilstein front stabilizer kit was installed to thwart the notorious Jeep death wobble. No rust, just power disc brakes all around.
Drive-Ability
This tough beauty fired right up and on the test track pulled no punches. All functions were working just fab and switching from 2 to 4 wheel drives was a breeze. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
Overall, this snazzy Jeep Wrangler is a definite high end build, is well appointed, looking great, and ready for any outdoor adventure you can throw at it. Add in the snappy wheels and all terrain tires all under the wonderful Jeep badge, a go anywhere explorer...what say you Vasco da Gama?
