I chose Area 51. I don’t have mine yet but I’ve seen others. I do like it however I saw one in Antimatter blue for the first time last week and it is now by far my favorite. Unfortunately that isn’t a color we can switch to anymore. Antimatter truly is a beautiful color. I think the color of it on the build and price is absolutely what hurt that color cause it is so far from what the actual color looks like it’s not even funny. It’s unfortunate but I’ll be happy enough with the Area 51.
I saw antimatter blue in the dealership I went to today. It is gorgeous!

I ordered cactus gray but the antimatter blue has really been catching my eye lately.

I'm trying to understand why so many people on here ask what kind of wheels, what color, what model etc. Or "Hey guys help me build my Bronco" wow! Build whatever you want! It's yours.
I guess lots of people nowadays spend thousands after the purchase to impress other people.
Yeah I'm old,...less is more. I do it foe me only.
Pretty simple, we are having a forum conversation...We are sitting in front of our PC's reading a Bronco forum and killing time until our Bronco's arrive. A lot more entertaining then opening my endless flow of work emails at 9pm at night....
Color of the Bronco is a hard decision since there are not a lot on the road to see. What looks good on a Focus has a different look on a BL SAS. Many of us who customize our vehicles do it for ourself and enjoy having an upgraded more tailored look. In many cases higher quality craftsmanship then the OEM parts we replaced.

I liked Area 51 in renders/pictures and it’s a nice colour in person. Cactus Grey has really grown on me the more I see in person. I’m rolling the dice of Eruption Green. For myself, Antimatter Blue changed my whole plan. Loved the idea of it from the renders on the MY21 Build & Price and photos on Levine’s socials. Saw it in person and it was so much darker. Was crushed. I think photos of Area 51 are very representative of the colour in person. I suspect you’ll still like it.

A51 and Cactus Grey gave me horrible flashbacks to my youth when everything was avocado green and harvest gold. I went with Iconic Silver. I figured it would never be the hottest color of the moment but it will always be an enduring color. Your mileage may vary.

We got Cactus Gray and love it; nothing like the B&P and hard to tell from pics exactly what it is. I wouldn't trust any color other black and white without seeing in person. Pics of the Bronco do not do it justice in any way- color or the size and proportions. You should be able to find most of the colors on other vehicles.
I agree with this, for the most part. The color and shade is rather dynamic depending on the lighting. I guess most colors slightly shift when in different light, but cactus jumps from slightly minty to grey which I find rather interesting. Sure, a good number of Broncos will be this color, but I mainly picked it because I like the contrast with the darker trim parts, and I won’t have to worry as much when beating it up off-road. Should be easy to touch up, more so than the majority of other colors. It looks good and is a practical color for an off-road vehicle. White also makes sense, but I’ve had a couple white vehicles and wanted something more fun. Could care less about being “different” by going with a color that has a lesser take rate. To each, their own.

I will say I originally liked Area 51 on the sport, but seeing it on the big Bronco in Moab solidified my final choice of Cactus. I also didn’t like Cactus on the Ranger. Rapid Red was very pretty, deep, rich. Try to see the colors on the real Bronco, if possible. Think about what makes sense for YOU and enjoy the hell out of it!

I have a Bronco Sport Badlands (That I'll be swiftly trading in when my Black Diamond arrives) in area 51.
I'm tired of the color. I really like a little more shine/flake though. It's grown to be a little boring to me personally.

My favorite bronco colors so far are Eruption Green, Velocity Blue, and Iconic Silver

Proud to say I picked the least popular choice according to B6G :giggle:

This is one of the best colors! How does look in person? I've only seen photos, but I can imagine after a fresh wash the iconic silver has a special shine to it.

Just about to go pick mine up (VB). but I went by last night to check it out and I have to say I actually do not like the way it looks at all on the Bronco. They received 3 others, cactus grey, carbonized, and antimatter blue. I really like the all of those better. The cactus grey looked totally different in person and is my favorite. I am a bit disappointed and hoping it will grow on me. I may look at a matte wrap in the future.

Okay, I have my ‘22 Big Bend Bronco ordered in Area 51. From the many, many pictures I have seen on here I absolutely love the bluish gray color. Super unique and subtle. But, I have never seen it in person. Curious if there are folks out there who ordered their Bronco sight unseen and either regretted their color choice or absolutely fell in love with it once they saw it (any color, doesn’t have to be Area 51). Any and all feedback is appreciated - thanks!

There are plenty of examples of Amazon-51 on the roads.

Sorry to hear! Hopefully it grows on you. I am leaning towards carbonized gray as my new color. I would have picked antimatter blue if it was an option for 2022, but of course it's not.

If it helps at all I saved this from another thread months ago. (I had to choose a new color cause AMB was put to rest.)

it does include the 2021 retired colors but maybe it’ll still help!
