This ^. What's the point of using the word "Cactus" in the name of the color if there is not even a hint of green and it's really just cement gray?
It's a cactus..... encased in concrete?

Ooooooooo, how creatively beautiful would that be? Everything is art, assuming the viewer is tripping hard enough.

2021 Bronco paint codes
Rick...I assume reading across horizontally (Ditzler, Dupont, etc.) those are the various suppliers Ford can access to supply the identical finished product? So....moving off cactus grey a second, I see Antimatter Blue has a Ford code assigned - but no supplier codes. So where's the paint coming from on the widely imaged pre-pro units?

Man, I hadn't seen this post yet. I'm glad that Carbonized looks as dark as it does here. I'm hoping for more a charcoal than a dark silver.

Carry-over colors are already in the programs around the country/world with the paint code. Look at the 2020 colors and you'll find all those codes (2020 colors)

For brand new colors I guess we just wait until the paint supplier establishes the formula and distributes the codes out to all the software. Then we'll see it pop up for use. If it hasn't had a final code assigned then my assumption is that it isn't in production yet.

I'm not in the automotive industry, so I don't know all the specific ins/outs beyond the code being required for body shops to make or obtain the color to paint.

I'm a tiny bit optimistic that the glaring difference between what we've seen of Cactus Gray / Jet Fighter Gray in the Bronco and Mustang images and the CG Bronco Sport has to do with non-production spec paint differences at MAP vs. Hermosillo.

Cactuses are not always green. They can be gray. Just like roses aren’t always red.

How similar is the CO compared to the mustang orange? Are they different or just renamed?

Not even close. The Mustang designers apparently know the difference between orange and yellow.

Stopped by my local Ford dealership and took some photos of some Rangers and F-150s in colors that will be offered on the Bronco. I also took a picture of Lightning Blue (Ranger) vs Velocity Blue (F-150). Velocity Blue seems to be brighter and more eye-catching than Lightning Blue. Colors found were: Velocity Blue, Lightning Blue, Race Red, Rapid Red, Oxford White, and Iconic Silver. I also got a pic of a Mustang in Fury Orange in case anybody has any idea how close that will be to Cyber Orange. Pics taken in full, bright, daylight. Enjoy.

Top row left to right: Oxford White (YZ), Area 51 (KU), Carbonized Grey Metallic (M7), Velocity Blue Tri-coat (E7)
Second row: Cyber Orange (SB), Race Red (PQ), Iconic Silver Metallic (JS), Shadow Black/Absolute Black (G1)
Third Row: Rapid Red/Lucid Red Tri-coat (D4), Kodiak Brown (J1), Anitmatter Blue Metallic (HX)

Missing Cactus Grey. Axalta still doesn't have mix formula. All spray outs were on 6000 series aluminum with normal prime, seal, color, clear procedures. Materials were all Spies Hecker. We had a local sign guy make some bronco vinyl decals which we used a contrast color under the top.

ETA: Saw a couple threads talking about Antimatter Blue and tried to get a couple different shots. It's a real bitch to get it to "change colors" . The first pic is against a grey wall held almost flat, looks black, eh? Second is it at an angle with office "daylight" led overhead to show it really is a deep navy/blue. We don't have any good sun today but the angle you are looking from makes a big difference in what color you think it is.

And where can I get these at for myself? Those would look great framed all next to one another!
