Been looking at a 2018 Golden Eagle JK edition from a dealer. Super clean, 13,600. Comes with 3-part hardtop as well as soft top. Never been off-road and soft top has never been put on. 2-door, power convenience package, manual transmission. LED lighting group, remote keyless entry, etc. Dealer wants $33,160. Thoughts?
 
CarGurus says it is a fair deal, meaning that it is just below market. So, they are going by the $32K number from KBB. Make them an offer and see what they will do. When I bought my JK a few months back, the dealer came off the price $2,500.

KBB says it's worth $32-36k, so I'd say you're in pretty good shape.
Thank you.
You have a picture of it?

Not familiar with the Golden Eagle, but does it have a factory lift? It does look like it just a touch.
This was the Golden Eagle package when it first came out.

"The new Wrangler JK Golden Eagle is loaded with awesome exterior and interior standard features. Interior features like Golden Eagle logos on the front seats, titanium-painted interior bezels, bronze accent stitching on front door armrests, console lit black leather wrapped steering wheel and black cloth seats come with the model.

There are even more exterior features! Standard on the outside of the JK Golden Eagle includes steel front and rear bumpers, bronze tow hooks, heavy duty rock rails, black tail lamp guards, a premium tan soft top, and body-color grille and fender flares with bronze accents, headlamp rings and Jeep badging. Finally, this model comes with 17-inch low gloss bronze wheels with BFGoodrich KO2 tires. This model also comes standard with a Tru-Lok locking rear differential."

So...here's an update. I ended up holding out for a great price and bought the Golden Eagle a couple of days ago. I love it so much. I really missed my old Jeep and having a stick shift. Now to work on sprucing it up. :)

I love having the dual top option! Never had a hard top before so it is kind of nice to be able to remove the Freedom panels. Will be removing it this weekend and putting up the soft top. The soft top has never been used before, although it is installed. The vehicle is a 2018 but only had 13,600 on it. It literally looks brand new. It only had one owner so I'm not sure if they didn't drive it much or?

Finding all sorts of customizations that the owner must have originally ordered. Some of the things are part of the Golden Eagle package, but some are not. Here is my new friend. Don't laugh at the "doily" tire cover. :) It was on my other Jeep so I just put it back on this one. lol

Very excited to be part of the Jeep family again. Hello.

That tire cover is depreciating your Jeep by thousands of $$. Haha Just bugging ya. :)
Nice looking Jeep. Super clean . Never heard of a Golden Eagle edition . Maybe they didn't sell them in Canada . Enjoy your new ride!!

Good deal. I bought mine at $38k in 2021.
