Earlier this week, the Call of Duty video game franchise introduced its latest incarnation, Call of Duty: Black Ops, much to the delight of the gamers all over the world. And while the release of the game was big news in the gaming world, people on the auto industry had another reason to enjoy the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops.
We touched on this before, but we only got a glimpse of the real thing recently. If you?ve the faintest the idea of what we?re talking about, Activision ? the distributors of the video game ? collaborated with Jeep to have a Jeep Wrangler featured on the game. Even better than that, that particular Jeep Wrangler that you?ll see in the game also has a real version because Jeep created a limited edition 2011 Jeep Wrangler Call of Duty: Black Ops Edition.
The special edition version of Jeep?s most popular off-road vehicle comes in either a two-door model or a four-door Unlimited model and is based on the Wrangler?s Rubicon trim. The special edition Wrangler was given a completely blacked-out exterior paint that goes well with a set of mineral gray allow wheels that?s wrapped in some pretty intimidating 32-inch off-road tires. The vehicle also happens to have some Mopar influences on it, including Mopar tail lamp guards and a Mopar fuel door. Oh, and there?s also a number of Call of Duty: Black Ops stickers adorned on the car.
The two different models ? the two-door and the four-door Unlimited - are priced at $30,625 and $33,500, respectively. Best get your funding straightened out because unlike the game that costs around $60, you?re going to have to shell out a tad more money to be able to purchase the real-life Wrangler Call of Duty: Black Ops Edition.
Take the game to the real world, so they say. Only this time, leave the guns in the virtual world.
Press Release after the jump.
