I went back and forth on cactus grey, and it isn't what I wanted to be. So ended up with Black on my base model, which I think goes with the base model best anyways 🤷‍♂️.

I just switched to Cactus Gray from Cyber Orange. I am always bouncing back and forth, so I totally get it. It is hard to judge the colors on other vehicles since the Bronco has a ton of accent trims that break up the color.

This picture reassures me that I made the correct choice. I don't even mind the silver beauty rings on this color.

I saw cactus gray wild tracks to door in person and I thought it looked great I also saw the cactus gray four-door first edition with a mic top and it also looks really good.
In my opinion the black beauty rings look better

I was is in the same boat as you and wavering on the color every other day as all pictures of it online look slightly different. I have now seen the color multiple times in person and can say a) it looks nothing like the pictures from the internet and b) looks way better than I expected. 100% into it and by far my favorite color.

4dr, BD, MIC, changed from Cactus to A51 and finally settled on Carbonized Gray. I really like the Cactus but was worried how the MIC would fade against the lighter gray. Was worried it may look a little too washed out.

My AMB is on the train and I still love it, but the silver makes me wish I ordered two.

You might want to call the Bronco Customer Service line to find out whether you have a VIN #. I called last Friday after checking the backdoor lookup which showed a 2/7 build date and they already assigned me a VIN #.
What is the backdoor lookup?

I think its totally normal to have second thoughts once you get a build date/ scheduled but as soon as I saw my rapid red Outer Banks any worries I had went away. Super happy with my choice ☺

I saw Cactus on a Wildtrak and wasn't really a fan with the color matched handles. For some reason, black handles suits the overall color really well and it all balances out. When I first picked mine up and walked up to it at dusk, I was totally thrown off because it gave a pretty strong blue hue. It has a cool dynamic in different lighting and time of day.

I tried to change color to no avail, but that was a couple months ago. Maybe Ford changed their position since, but I was stuck like chuck. Cactus gray, aka mint green in certain light, is growing on me, but likely because I am impatient and impulsive 🤣 When it isn’t mint green, I love it!
No shit…I thought advacado when I saw it in person.

I love fun colors. And the lack of fun colors on the Bronco bums me out. They are using too many safe colors. My tops are velocity blue and cyber orange. Velocity blue is pretty popular on the Bronco and is also on several other Ford vehicles. I want Cyber Orange but on an OBX it is roast or navy pier interior. I don't like roast and NP just won't look good IMO. I do also like cactus gray and A51. But every other Bronco is going to be one of those two. I really hope they change it up for 2023.

I did. I specified A-51, and after about a year regret set in and wanted AMB.
Then I took delivery. No regrets now, great colour match with MIC and tint , love it now!

I agree about the handles.

I work at a dealership (not Ford) and we rent cars from Hertz for out customers when we run out of our own cars. There is a Cactus Gray Bronco Sport rental that has been out there for two days. I was able to see it in all sorts of lighting. Feel confident with my choice.
