I have gone back and forth with this same question. The more I look at what the Rubicon has to offer compared to a sport with upgrades, for the money and with it being my daily driver as well as occasional wheeling, I think I'm breaking the bank and going Rubicon with 35's and 2 inch lift.
Family member of mine owns a Jeep dealership, who is ordering me one. He is checking frequently so he can order me the Blue, but he said don't get my hopes up for the 5th, they rarely actually release on that day projected.
