Stolen Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 found with a bizarre interior
If you thought you’ve seen the weirdest interior designs, prepare for a surprise. This Wrangler Rubicon 392 shatters all notions of style with its bright—and clearly not in a good way—interior. The car was discovered after the theft and listed for sale at an IAAI auction. While the exact location of the theft is unknown, the condition of the interior suggests the thieves may have had second thoughts and abandoned the vehicle.
This V8-powered model remains one of the most exciting for off-roading. The theft doesn’t seem to have caused serious damage, but the 30,374 miles on a 2023 vehicle raises questions, especially with such a “unique” interior design.
Now, about the interior… It’s truly special. The seats are upholstered in bright green and yellow leather, resembling a neon nightmare. The stitching? Uneven, sloppy, and just plain weird. The dashboard is also adorned with green leather and yellow stitching, while part of the transmission tunnel is bright red. In short—the color scheme is striking, though not always in a good way.
The rear seats continue the “color assault”—the same green-and-yellow leather. Even the interior pillars are painted red. Altogether, it creates an impression that likely didn’t match the original designer’s vision.
At the IAAI auction, this Wrangler is listed for $49,500, with an estimated repair cost of $4,520. If you disregard the “damage” in the form of the interior color choice, the car appears intact. Replacing the bright leather with something more classic might cost extra, but for many, it would be worth it.
This case shows just how varied car owners’ tastes can be. Even a powerful and technologically advanced model like the Wrangler Rubicon 392 can fall victim to questionable tuning. However, if someone is willing to invest time and money into restoring the interior to a more traditional look, this off-roader still remains an excellent choice for adventure.
