Heart Skipped A Beat

[mattrb87]

Alright here is another color dilemma. I ordered a Sasquatch Carbonzied Grey, always wanted dark gray, not into flashy things...but after seeing this Race Red Sasquatch, my heart skipped a beat and I might just pull the trigger and switch colors. Never owned a dark grey or red vehicle before. Pros and cons about each color?


P.S. I will say the grey does look a little dull next to Race Red (maybe Rapid Red in that pic...whatever)! Red looks so exciting!

First time I saw Race Red, on an F-150, my heart skipped, too! Wowza. I can spot them from a half mile away.

Last pic is Rapid Red.

Switched from Cactus to Race Red for many of the same reasons. It was also appealing to me that the surveys on B6G show that only about 3% of orders chose the Race Red.

If you don't want to stand out, go grey. So many vehicles are white, black, or some shade of grey/silver.
If you want to be noticed, go Race Red.
If you want a little spice in your life but do not want to be the center of attention, go Rapid Red.
All three colors in the last pic. Carb Grey Bronco, Race Red Ranger, and Rapid Red Bronco.

Last pic is Rapid Red.

The Ranger is Race Red though.

The Ranger is Race Red though.

Not the one in the back though.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to point out the railing in the back is Yellow.

Yes, but is it grabber yellow, competition yellow or dog pee yellow?

I may be in a unique position to opine, I drive dark cars (black, charcoal) or silver, but we just ordered GF's third bright red BMW. So I have both of your options in my garage at all times. The grey will be a bit better at hiding small imperfections and dirt, but the red IMO on the Bronco is a nicer looking vehicle. I am not a fan of multiple close but not matching shades / finishes, the contrast of red to fenders / roof / grille will look nicer compared to all the not quite the same greys.

Red isn't that flashy at least in my area, it's not a bright orange super car or something really nuts. I suspect the Bronco in and of itself will attract enough attention regardless of color. Plus it's not like it will go so fast on the highway that you have to worry about extra attention from cops.

If I had to choose a red I'd go with Rapid Red. Partial to the darker shades. Contrary to that belief, I ordered Cyber Orange. Go figure.

I think the Race Red looked especially good because of the black soft top. I'm not sure a MIC top would be as nice.

Sterling grey mustang in the driveway currently. Good colour but tame. Hides dirt/scuffs better than brighter Metalic's (ford blue's). Race red looks amazing. Don't want another grey but do like the Carbonized. Settled on CG...not brave enough for the reds!

Go for it!

It's hard to beat red but I'm not a fan of Race Red. There's a Ranger down the street and it's too bright with no warmth. Consider Rapid Red as it's a better choice IMHO.

Real world problem when I had my bright yellow “Bumblebee” Camaro SS haha.

Follow your heart. The Bronco isn't a subtle vehicle so why should the paint not be loud and expressive? Do what moves you.

To add:

Owned a Tornado Red Volkswagen which was not the most sporty vehicle, but I sure enjoyed the color. Bright red like race red does a pretty good job of looking good for a while after a wash versus darker colors like black, and when you get it all washed up it looks fantastic.
