If this is the color in my profile pic then I’m going Area 51 as well. So freakin beautiful
hard to tell between Area 51 and cactus sometimes.... currently thinking antimatter blue, but will it be difficult to keep clean?

Tough choices...but keep in mind there'll be more body-color options than: (1) top colors, (2) interior seating/dash, (3) interior accents/grab handles, (4) stripe/decal packages

I'll probably work thru the limited options - then decide body color last.

After the lifter issue on my Ram, my sweet wife approved my decision to buy a Bronco when they are available. She decided antimatter blue should be the color. I was leaning toward Cactus Grey, but by letting her choose the color, she has "buy in" to the Bronco and we're both happy.

Originally was dead set on Antimatter Blue, I'm torn between that and Velocity.... I really want to see each in person on other models.

Velocity Blue is more my style but Antimatter really has my interest if it isn't TOO dark.

One upside to waiting for Velocity, gives me more time to save up and finance less!

I do like Area 51 a lot, but I said if I ever but another new vehicle it was gonna be BLUE blue. In person sampling is gonna tell the final result.

Through some friends of friends, I was able to get these photos of the real Ford paint samples sent to me. (And that's all I'll say about that...)

Area 51 and Antimatter Blue inside, in full sun, and in half sun half shade. Pics were taken on an iPhone with no touchup or filters. Both really look like two entirely different colors in the light vs. not. This has not made my decision ANY easier haha.

You win the internet for the day!!

I no longer NEED to see them in person (even though I will still try) this gives me a great understanding. Wish you had Cactus as well.

Thank you thank you!!

This, I will assume, is great news for those that desire AMB! I assumed almost black during the evening, but was thinking it would be near the same during the day.

Area 51 = Imitation Grey

Antimatter = Imitation Black

The Grey scale wins again!

First, thank you and your friend for making that happen! Secondly, my top three just changed again. Gosh darn it, picking my Bronco’s color is kicking my booty.

Man, that’s awesome. That antimatter looks a lot nicer than I thought. I think that Area 51 is still going to be my choice. I really really like the velocity blue. But, I kind of want something different and if it’s late availability. That’s a none starter for me.

It is. That's what I was going to vote for but it's not a poll option. It's at least in the lead for me until I can see these colors in person.
How are we actually having a discussion about if Cactus GRAY is a blue paint?!?!
