I've seen a thousand pictures of this color and actually seen it in person, and it is still absolutely a mystery to me.
I think that is what I like about it.

The color difference between the side facing the window and the opposite side is crazy. Green hue on one side then a slight blue tint on the other.
Yes, if people would take their time and learn how to use a camera, stay off auto, you would have much better and more consistent colour results...camera phones, no matter the brand are stifled by the loose nut behind the viewfinder!
And then there’s the uncalibrated monitors that most use, that are not even close to accurate! lol

Yeah, I have a vest I bought at bass pro, I match when I’m at home (grey color) Go out in public and it looks green.

How can this be 1 of 7000, these are test vehicles that will be crushed and never sold. The real number one isn't even close to being built yet, strange that they did this. I saw Barrett-Jackson is going to auction a First Edition VIN 001 on March 27, will be interesting to see what it goes for.
They'll all be one of 7000, doesn't mean more than one will be first of 7000. They will change the stamping to #1 of 7000 at that point.

Orange peel paint and a chip on the top hinge. I haven’t driven a Ford lately, is that to be expected?

What about the muffler bearings? Are they aligned so that dirt from a departure angle of 15 deg will not cause premature wear on the electo-pneumatic locking piston?
Otherwise I may cancel my order....

39 PSI cold it says... that watermark addition really degraded the pic quality

That's pretty high for that size tire and vehicle weight. I run about 30 psi on my JKU with similar sized tires. Also, my payload is 850 lbs and it's never been an issue.

Looks like some one was using a texture gun...

Orange peel seems to be a normal factory appearance to an extent these days. Maybe since they went to water based? I started noticing it on my '06 300c. I had my car for pdr recently at a detail shop and they had a brand new vette they said they were rubbing/polishing the factory orange peel off for the customer. They had been working on it all day.

Changes color as much or more than AMB. Looks like Immodium D from one angle and grey primer from another. No depth to the color. JMO.
I have to agree. I was at this dealer to see the #1 FE as well. My first comment was that the online pictures didn't do the color justice.... yet all these pictures from that lighting are exactly how it looked. 😆

Can anyone make out the full VIN? Wanted to run OASIS to see what the build is.
