That's what I'm getting but I'm telling myself that Badlands trim is yellow...if it's looks orange when I get it, the trim will have to go....
I'm thinking Cyber Orange is closer to Tennessee orange than jail jumpsuits, I mean that team in the upstate color.

The rapid red like so many reds these days is a lil too maroon. Would look better on a caddy. The velocity blue while it could be more dynamic like the lightning blue is far better than any other color they are offering.

If youā€™re asking which colour is better, Iā€™ve have Velocity Blue on my current F150 and have had Race Red and whatever the Rapid Red was called in 2009 - both are winners in my books.

That being said, I like to cycle through the bright colours which is why Iā€˜ve gone CO for my Bronco - though Iā€™m definitely switching to the shiny bright green if thatā€™s the colour offered in MY22 and if my MY21 build date is pushed out to late autumm.
There isnā€™t a color offered I wouldnā€™t be happy with. They all look nice. Orange would have been my top choice too if it wasnā€™t extra and would put me over budget. Green is what I am eyeing if things go badly snd I get pushed

I am down to A51 and Rapid Red. This thread sure does show Rapid Red in a great way! I like the A51, but from reading the posts on here, its going to be way too common.
Well I saw Rapid Red in person yesterday. I liked it for the most part, but didn't love it. I didn't like how it looked pink in some lighting. Still a great color, but I am going to stick with A51.

Man, that Rapid Red has so much depth to it. It's funny because I'm not a red person at all. Its my least liked automotive paint color but it's in the lead by a long ways on my base build. VB is alright but at this point I'd rather go for AMB as it seems to have more depth.

I'm thinking Rapid Red with a white grille and top paired with some retro styled wheels would be:

That sweet sweet Maverick that I miss every single time I sit behind the wheel of a car that doesnt have a 400hp 306 in it is Burnt Orange. In person it would never be mistaken for a red of any hue. I miss that car so much and talk about it every day.

And GT500 wheels and fiberglass Grabber Hood. The last year I had it I worked 2nd shift at a factory. Had a 20 mile or so commute between towns. Was a helluva car to blast down a state route in at 2 am. I also took of the rear exhaust and welded shorty glasspacks to the collectors, very raw!
