I have my appointment to go to my local Jeep dealership TONIGHT to order my new Overland. I am 100% set on everything except exterior color. The specs are:
2011 Overland Hemi 4x4
-Saddle interior
-Pano roof (dont want rear DVD)
-Adaptive cruise package

For the exterior colors I am still undecided between Dark Charcoal or Mineral Gray. I came across some amazing pictures from forum member Nbtstatic and his new Dark Charcoal and I think thats what I have my heart set on. That paint with saddle interior I think would be unbelievable. I must admit though looks incredible with his beige interior.

Now I do understand that saddle in apparently on hold however my dealership said they can still order it but could obviously take a looong time to get. He said they are a very high volume dealer here in the Chicago area and they have even been able to get things expedited before. How true that is I dont know, but as long as I can get my order in I dont care as I wasnt planning on buying one until summer anyway.

Soooo, what are your thoughts?

Mineral Gray with saddle or Dark Charcoal with saddle? As of now im leaning towards Charcoal as every picture I see of mineral just doesnt look good. Maybe it doesnt take pictures well I dont know but im thinking its going to be just too light. I have seen it in person and like it and in videos on youtube. But I have seen no high quality pictures that have me sold on it (unlike Nbtstatic's pics).

Thanks,
James

I own the jeep in the photo above. According to the window sticker, it is "Dark Charcoal Pearl Coat Exterior Paint".

I've seen tons of them at the dealer, and they're all the same. :brows:

Could you be thinking of Mineral Grey maybe?

So I am proud to say that user Nbtstatic sold me with his absolutely amazing pictures and I ordered a new Overland V8 4x4 Dark Charcoal with Dark Frost Beige interior, pano sunroof, and adaptive cruise tech package!!!!!


I was originally looking at the Dark Charcoal but when I saw one on the lot one night it didn't seem to pop with metallic like I wanted so I started thinking of the black since the one I saw had lots of metallic. Then I saw Nbtstatis's pictures and I'm sold. I already wanted the Dark Frost Beige interior but now I need to check out a Dark Charcoal during the day to make sure it looks as good as Nbtstatic's. Thanks for the amazing pics.

Sorry but your both wrong. Dark Charcoal is hands down the most amazing color available on the WK2. Oh wait color is 100% personal opinion! ;-)

Let this picture speak for itself! I saw this and instantly knew dark charcoal was going to be mine!
