2012 Jeep Wrangler

RUGGED, TRAIL-READY, V6 MANUAL, NO-ACCIDENT, LOCAL TRADE-IN, NONSMOKER, GO ANYWHERE, DO ANYTHING! Few vehicles announce themselves quite like the 2012 Jeep Wrangler Sport does in Gecko Pearl. This electric green two-door was already one of the most recognizable shapes on the road, and this one takes it further. Chunky mud-terrain tires on black XD Series wheels, a stubby off-road front bumper, and a commanding stance give it the look of a Jeep that has been built for the trail rather than simply bought for it. Beneath the attitude is the combination Wrangler enthusiasts love most. The 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and part-time FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE, so you get the engaging, row-your-own driving experience and genuine low-range capability that has defined the Wrangler for generations. A factory anti-spin rear differential and 3.73 axle ratio add traction and pulling power, while the easy-folding soft top means open-air driving is only a few minutes away. With the odometer hovering around the 71,300-mile mark, a NO-ACCIDENT history, and its status as a LOCAL TRADE-IN, this Wrangler has lived an unusually easy life for a Jeep of its age. It is ready for beach days, back roads, and weekend trail runs. WHY SHOPPERS BUY THIS MODEL There is simply nothing else like a Jeep Wrangler. Most SUVs are designed primarily for pavement and only occasionally venture off it. The Wrangler was engineered from the start around genuine off-road capability, with solid front and rear axles, a true two-speed transfer case, and generous ground clearance, while remaining a vehicle you can drive every day. The two-door model is the purest expression of that formula. Its shorter wheelbase makes it remarkably nimble on tight trails and easy to park in town, and it delivers the classic Jeep experience that traces directly back to the original military vehicles. Removable doors, a fold-down windshield, and an easy-folding soft top let you strip it down to the essentials and feel every mile of the drive. The Wrangler has also earned a reputation for holding its value like few other vehicles. The enormous aftermarket support means owners can personalize it endlessly, and the Jeep community is famous for its enthusiasm, from the friendly Jeep wave on the highway to organized trail rides across the country. Buying a Wrangler is not just buying a vehicle, it is joining a culture. AUTOMOTIVE PRESS AND INDUSTRY RECOGNITION The 2012 model year was a major turning point for the Wrangler. Reviewers widely praised the arrival of the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, which delivered roughly 40 percent more horsepower than the previous engine along with improved refinement and efficiency. It transformed the Wrangler's on-road manners and highway merging confidence while preserving its legendary off-road capability. Critics also continued to highlight the Wrangler's unmatched trail performance, its iconic open-air design, and its exceptional resale value.
