LOL - my last 5 vehicles have been Race Red, 2005 Focus Yellow, Ruby Red Metallic, Tangerine Scream, and Velocity Blue. My Bronco is CO but if the 22 colours include a shiny green I’ll change.
Nothing to do with attention wh0ring, everything to do with how colours make me feel. Bright colours make me happy. I look at my vehicles every day and see the hood colour while I drive. I could give a rat’s bum what others think of the colours as long as I like them.
Buy what makes you happy. My .02
I still love a good metallic charcoal gray, but my last two cars were that color and I wanted something different. I saw the Cactus Gray BD in person and fell in love with the color, so I went with that.
As for red, it's a bit too much for my taste but I think Rapid Red on the Bronco will look awesome. Race Red is a bit too "fire truck" for me, too flat with some orange undertones.
Go look at some Bronco Sports in these colors and see what looks good on an SUV.
For some reason, they just don't translate well from a Truck.
Just my $.02

Just saw the Bronco in person today. I had antimatter blue ordered but immediately changed my order to cactus grey after seeing it. Cactus grey looks amazing on the Bronco, but terrible on the Bronco Sport. I can’t explain it.
The antimatter blue fuel can was really nice. The antimatter blue f-150 is amazing… It’s going to show every single speck of dirt and trail rash/desert striping.
My recommendation to everyone is to see the colors in person as much as you can. It really changes depending on the vehicle.

The red does not show much dirt. My husband's truck is that color and his always looks so much cleaner than my blue truck. It's also a cool color.

All my vehicles are either Yellow or Red.
My name is Dave and I'm an attention whore.
Or at least that's what my therapist says.

Wife likes Race Red and really likes Carbonized Gray while I like Rapid Red. I actually like Carbonized Gray too but it’s a fairly dark color for Arizona summers. I ended up ordering Iconic Silver which is a good neutral color and should look good with a body color matched top. I’m really intrigued by the gas can green.

Both Carbonized Gray and Race Red are beautiful colors. Although totally on different ends of the spectrum. You might want check out Rapid Red it's a nice balance between the two. Personally I would of went Rapid Red if Lightning Blue wasn't added to the FE. But in the end buy what puts the biggest smile on your face 
You might want to stop by your local dealer before finalizing a decision. Nothing like seeing the colors in person, IMO.

Switched from Area 51 to CG after early photos surfaced. Haven’t seen a Bronco in person yet, but glad to hear your enthusiasm about CG.
Race red is like the pretty girl with the bright red fingernails... it’s a sexy color and was a sleeper pick for me. I normally don’t care for red vehicles but for some reason Race red fits the bronco perfect. Makes me question why I chose cactus 
Isn't there last pic Rapid Red and Race Red?
It’s real sharp. This photo is pretty true to life on the Bronco. Very little green in it to my eye. I saw it both in direct sun and indoors.
Funny enough, the Ford rep told me they recently changed the formulation and it has a bit more green in it. I didn’t see that at all.
The biggest seller is it will hide trail damage better than any other color. It’s the perfect shade of gray to blend with the scratch in the clear coat. This Bronco had a little trail rash and it was almost impossible to spot. Enough green that I think if you put it in a forest, it would almost work like camo and come across with a real green hue.
