Question Buying new 2012, what options are necessary?

Hi everyone, my wife and I may be buying our first Jeep this weekend, a Wrangler Sahara Unlimited. I would just like to pick all of your brains on some of the options I should really ensure to get. I pasted my currently selected options below if that helps.

The dealer did say he'd have a hard time finding one with all of these options in red/orange with the touchscreen so that option may have to be dropped in order to get a color we both like.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

Unlimited Sahara - Engine: 3.6L V6 VVT , Transmission: 5-Speed Automatic (W5A580) , 4dr 4x4

Jeep is about where the road takes you....... drop all the nav and computer stuff........ as for comfort.... heated seats are awesome in the winter. Get the two tops..... better to pay for them now than try to find an aftermarket one later.

All just my two cents, it all comes down to what you want and what your wife tells you that you want...... Just kidding...... Enjoy and remember to Wave.

Something else is make sure that your rear end has limited slip diferential. It was a listed option when I purchased my Jeep. Not sure if any come without it but it is a must have. Otherwise one side in a mud hole and you are stuck!
