A51, White, & Rapid Red Bronco SPORTS

[mikeheel]

Here are a few pictures I took today at the local Ford dealership in Durham, NC. I had hope A51 would be a little closer in color to the "Cool Gray Khaki" blue of my Crosstrek. As you can see in the pictures where they're side by side, the A51 is a darker hue. To my eye, it had gray/green undertones with a blue top finish. The photos are not true to color in that A51 looks more blue and the Subie looks more washed out. The Subie is basically a "Carolina Blue" look but not as pale as it looks in these photos.

Sorry, the doors were locked, so the interior pictures are not good.

White and red were Big Bend. A51 was OBX.

Length is almost exactly equal with the Crosstrek, but the Sport sits a lot higher.

Nice! Thanks for posting! What was your impression of Rapid Red? Pops? Boring? Highlights?

I thought the red looked really good. It does pop, IMO.

Cool thanks, it's one of the non boring colors I'm considering.

Thanks for including your Crosstrek. It’s a solid baseline color for me. I’m a big Subie fan and like all the Crosstrek colors. The burnt orange Crosstrek color is basically my dream Bronco color.

My local dealer has an A51 Bronco Sport Badlands with the optional leather trimmed interior in "roast"/black. I didn't get an actual pic, but the render from the B&P tool is pretty representative of the actual product. Looked sharp!

We went and saw Rapid Red and Cactus on a couple Sports. The red is not for me (came off as maroon) on a Bronco. It has pretty depth, and I understand how many will love it because of that. My 10 year old captured my feeling when she said it was a minivan color.

Your 10 year old, bless her heart, just helped me strike that color off my list!
