392 Extreme Recon ?

[JT@623]

So I’ve been bitten by the 392 bug and have a couple questions. I found a basically new 2022 Extreme Recon 392 for $85K and some change.
Is that a fair price?
How well do you think these will hold there value since they are going away?
Are there any major defects that I should be aware of.
For Those that have them are they worth it ?
Thanks

That price is essentially what they sell new. Depending on how many miles are on it, could be a good by anyway. As far as how well they'll hold their value goes, it's hard not to think they won't hold it extremely well. I know that Ricky here on the forum had a lot of problems with his but that's since been fixed and I haven't hear too much of anything else.

Now, for the real question, are they worth it? For me, yes. I absolutely love mine. However, I would be the first to say, they're stupid expensive - way more than they should be and that almost turned me off to buying one.

85k with taxes & fees? Interest over 5 or 6 years… That’s crazy. Do it! Lol

I agree on the expensive side but I got to believe this will be the last V/8 Jeep . This one’s sticker price was $91K with just over 1400 miles on it.

Yup, there will be no more V8 after this, only EV.

I’ll always say buy it! That way I can live through everyone else as I’ll never be able to get one.

It’s only money there printing more as we speak

Man I get the bug as well but the prices are hard to swallow. It’s absolutely an investment purchase though.

Not really I’m getting cold feet that’s a lot of damn money more than I paid for my fully loaded diesel pickup.

lol
You sound like me. I’ll get all hot and bothered and fully in on buying a 392. Then I make myself sleep on it for a week.
Then do that over and over and over till I’m able to blame jeep for discontinuing it and why I never get one.

Does it come with the dual door group like the sticker shows?

 

[JT@623]

No the previous owner sold the doors

I mean, you can still put a V8 in the JK!!

I’ve got the Motech swapped JK that I’m probably $75K into and was planning on hitting you up later in the year for a double throw down
Which if I buy this one I won’t be able to do
That and the wife said the TJ Rubi would probably have to go

Or…..buy 392, sell others and take all the profit to fully build 392? I’m not helping any huh….

There is no telling what the ability to repair this thing will be like in the future. If something breaks and replacement parts are not available, it could be like a total loss. Running with the herd is less risky.
