that GC is a 97 orvis edition
wasnt sure exactly where this should've gone since its not really tech, mods feel free to move it to the appropriate spot if necessary.

I actually have the same color on my 96 ZJ... but it's a limited. Mine is very similar, but from the pictures all I can tell is mine doesn't have an opening liftgate window. If you like the color you could look for limited's.

Same color as my ZJ. Sometimes it looks kind of green, sometimes it looks kind of silver, but most of the time it is just dirty. I really need to wash it.

Exerpt from wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_C...2.80.931997.29 :

The Orvis Edition (1995–1997)

1996 Grand Cherokee Orvis


The Orvis (1995–1997)[9] was a Grand Cherokee Limited package that featured an exterior color scheme of Moss Green, or in 1997 the (less common) Light Driftwood, with roan red and maize side strip accents (1995). Moss Green paint accents on the road wheels (matching the moss green body color) and the special "Orvis" brand badging were the only significant exterior visual differences. In performance, the 5.2 V8 engine became standard, but was available with a 4.0 inline 6-cylinder engine. Also, all Orvis editions were installed with tow hooks and the Up-Country suspension group. However, the interior was special. Two-tone green and tan leather seats were complemented with roan red accent piping and Orvis insignia. There was a slight difference between the 1996 and 1997 years' interior compared to each other. The 1996 had a black dash where the 1997 had a tan dash, The Orvis Edition luxury trim package was optional on the Limited version, and when equipped with all the other options was the most expensive of all the Grand Cherokee versions until 1998 when the 5.9 Limited was introduced.

Production numbers of the Orvis Editions are:
  • 1995: 10,020
  • 1996: 2,341
  • 1997: 2,733

The purple one was bought to replace the other one. Purple was more of a pile then I thought so I stripped it and scrapped it. All those parts are going on my green, brown, moss, silver ugly Jeep.

The good thing about this color is that cops don't seem to notice it, it just blends in.
