No picture does it justice. I love it on mine and it changes with the light. Nothing but folks complimenting the color. Sorry there are so many that hate it, but it's way more blue than grey.
Meh... thought it looked good in pictures but in real life its puts me to sleep.

It's like if "gloomy rainy day" was a color.

But if you like it on your car that's all that really matters.

I always loved Anvil on Jeeps. It’s a similar color to A51 but lighter with less blue. It really worked on the Jeep, especially on the 10th anniversary models with the red leather.

I thought I would love A51 as much from the pictures but changed my color as soon as I got to see one in person. Just was not for me.

Dear god, my anvil does not look like that. Don't know if I would have gotten the Bronco if my Jeep looked as sexy as this.

Slate blue - it’s more gray than blue.

That's the color my wife really wanted until we saw them in person and switched to the Braptor. Too boring for the Braptor we thought so went with code orange

As someone who has actually been to Area 51, inside the fence.... we call ours Blue Crush. It's blue.

I do want to get a can of spray, to spray our D rings the same color. If anyone knows of a place to get that, please let me know.

Oh my Jeep is not going anywhere. I love that thing. It’s 9 years old and has been one of the best vehicles ever.

I sold a 2004 TJ Rubicon in perfect shape for the Badlands. I have had several YJ’s, TJ’s and JK’s. They all come and go but the one above has been far and away my favorite wheeling companion since it was new.

I’m sure the Bronco will also get traded away at some point also. Probably when I can pick up a Bronco Raptor for close to MSRP.

If I could afford to keep my wrangler I would. I'd use my Bronco as a weekend type vehicle. While there has been some maintenance situations with it still a great car. Once I took over doing all the mechanical work myself the "issues" seemed to become less so. Personally love my wrangler. Plus switching from manual to automatic after 12 years is gonna be sad. Excited to give the Bronco a go though. Probably will end up back in the Jeep family as I have loved my wrangler but for now Ford will be good.

I've never had anyone say anything other than "I love that blue color" when they talk to me about it. It's way more blue than gray to the vast majority of people I think. I also think there was a slight change from '21 to '22, the '21's look to have a little more green and gray tinting, while the '22's come out with a distinctive blue tint.

Whatever you call it, it must be the best color - this site uses it for the "6G" in the logo...
