    I believe this colour is available on normal Grand Cherokees for 2012 as well.

    body-color hard top and fender flares along with special Arctic badges and a Yeti footprint decal that wraps over the driver's side fender and hood
    Good grief that's cheesy!

    Awesome color. The stickers and interior sound positively puke-worthy though.

    I wonder if they'll offer that color on a regular Wrangler Unlimited?

    Since I live in the arctic, I should get it for a discount, right? There are actually about six Wranglers in the arctic village where I am, though Dodges seem far more popular for some reason.

    I dig it. The Yeti badging is a bit much though.

    I saw one on a dealer lot last weekend. List price was around $38k - caught me off guard. It looks good in white though!
