Not trying to convince anyone, the less AMB Broncos out there the more mine will unique. Just made a conversation to discuss how cool certain colors of the new Bronco can be, including this one. Carbon grey and rapid red would be my next choices if suddenly AMB wasn't available.
With at least 6 months to go until anyone starts getting their Broncos, we got nothing but time to pass. I hope those peeps who get theirs post pics of what the colors, interirs, etc all colors, look like when they arrive.
[/QUOTEthere are lots of amazon trucks out there,youll never be alone.

Let's just agree..... it's Black AND Blue.
Edit: took these pics at 2pm with a simple MotoG7 phone. No editing done! Added the 3rd pic to show less sun highlights. Yes, the shady side looks black

I saw it on the dealership owner's truck a few weeks back. It was early evening but not dark. The vehicle looked black, but also a bit blue. I thought it must be a really, really dark blue. I tried taking a picture with the phone flash on, but that only reflected the surroundings like a mirror. I used my phone's camera light to eyeball the color. WOW, check out the metallic turquoise sparkles in that paint! I was sold on the spot. It is a chameleon color, and will really pop in the sunlight. Who cares if it looks black in the dark? It's certainly not Velocity Blue which is now a common shade, metallic or not, on every vehicle from several manufacturers. I love Velocity Blue, but its just common. I also checked out the other colors. They're mostly the same colors found on other Ford vehicles and not particularly remarkable. There were a couple Bronco Sports in their yard with the odder colors. Meh. I've seen similar shades on Jeeps and Subarus. Kinda cool, but not. Yes, you can find dark blue vehicles, but I think you'll be really hard pressed to find a blue that has the built in tricks of Anti-Matter Blue. Some people will like it. Some won't.

That could all change if the green for MY22 is decent.

Love those sparkles !! Check out this pic. on the left is the reflection of the sun and the light pole. towards the Ford emblem is the shadow of the pole on the tail gate. The cloud in the reflection does not change but as you look from one side of the shadow to the other you can see how the sparkles disappear in the shadow. Its is an AWESOME color, but you have to like black.

Antimatter reminds me of my F150 in Kodiak Brown. You would swear it is black unless it is in the right light then the brown pops...same truck same picture. No need to check your glasses.

One of these is AMB and the other is black. You shouldn’t have to stare at something to know what color it is.

Here in Seattle, with our typical year of ~300 days of overcast skies and ~250 days a year of rain, Antimatter blue shall be considered black for all intents and purposes. Oh, I get it, those 12 days a year that your rig is Navy blue will be GLORIOUS!!!!!

We don't get enough sun in Ohio to make it look blue more than 30% of the time. I looked at an AMB Expedition today on the lot, and until a sunbeam broke through the clouds, it looked black. When the sun hit it, AMB became a glorious color. I think if you live somewhere sunny, it would be an absolute showstopper with a white roof, graphics, and MGV interior (who knows if they'll offer a white interior or not?).

Even in Colorado with it's relatively decent sun, I struggled to get it to pop. If the sun hits it just right, and you look at it from the right angle, you see the blue. And I could only see the metallic effect if I leaned in and really stared. Bottom line, to see the blue, all the variables have to be just right.

If I have to spend that much energy to find and enjoy the "hidden" color, then the color might as well not be there.

tell me exactly what you did to these photos. I simply do not believe it looks like that having seen it in person. And I have a nice phone camera and know what it’s capable of regarding manipulating colors
