Now if Jeep would only make the Wrangler with a Hemi and Dana 60's and Diesel option we would be done talking and be buying instead.

But all you would have is a couple of JK Rubicons. The 3B is something else entirely.It has cool written all over it. I know a lot of you can't afford the price of admission but it is still an awesome vehicle.I would love to take it cross country as is.Sure there might be days when it would try my patience but I did a 6000k trip in my military Unimog with basically 50's technology and I wouldn't give up the experience for anything (good times,bad times you know I have had my share...).Nice retro but for 79K you could buy 2 JK Rubicons
I have to agree. It looks to me like someone spent ~$40k in the catalog and then charged ~$40k in labour to put it all together. I'm being generous to keep the maths simple on the catalog part...
Not that there is anything wrong with that but as an end point the vehicle itself is not worth what they are asking IMO. For the extra, let's say $50k you are buying exclusivity I guess or perhaps participating in industrial art. Hardly something to be banging through South America in though.
Autoblog reviews the Icon CJ3B, and concludes it's worth $79K, maybe more, due to the quality of materials and level of craftsmanship. The CJ3B, like all the Icon products, is handmade without compromise.

Just because a Casio watch costs $15 and keeps perfect time doesn't mean that all watches should cost $15.

Indeed. But that doesn't mean you could ever convince me that a ~$25,000 Rolex is anything more than a status symbol.
