I saw Cactus Grey for the first time today. Was with a few other people and we all agreed Cactus looks really good.

Those promo pictures of Cactus have color range all over the place. I can say with confidence that these images are accurate to real life.

Look at the picture taken in the back, you can see how the color changes in the shade.

Another thing to keep in mind is the white Bronco lettering on the lift gate. Gives you an idea how a white top would look with the cactus

Still worried that A51 isnā€™t aggressive enough for a Bronco. I really hate it on the Bronco Sport and Outer Banks, but Iā€™ve liked it on sasquatched Broncos and Badands.

I donā€™t think these colours will age well.

There is no doubt that Cactus Grey will be the better color in the wild. Easer to maintain and will hide dirt and scratches better.
Agree 100%. If your a trail guy, itā€™s a great colour to hide the dust and dirt.

Agree, I like white and the blues, but the two reds with white roofs are growing on me.

I like Area 51, but the wife likes CG, and she points out it will not get as hot (we spend a lot of time in the desert) and won't fade as bad as darker colors, and the plus is it matches the RV well. I really need to see them in person. My Dealer says he has a truck load due it about the 22nd, and A51 and CG is included, says he will call me.

I saw this today at Future Ford in Concord, Ca today. Looks like dealers are going to get flooded with this color and A51. For those getting CG it looks better in person than in pictures as almost everyone reports. There is green in this color but it is not mint. Looked great with the black top and gray badlands grill. The roast and ebony interior looked good with it also.

I must say this Bronco Sport is a nice looking compact. Saw one at my local Ford DS. I'm just glad Ford didn't take the easy route and label the sport the official Bronco assuming people would be satisfied with a soft reimagining. But they made the Big Boy for the enthusiast and kept it as close to the original as possible. ?

I went and saw an Area 51 Sport this weekend as well. The color settings of cameras and monitors seemed to have this color all over the map. It is definitely a mid-darkness steel blue than has often been shown in pics. It is exactly as I hoped it would be and solidified my personal decision.
