Both the AG and Magnetic are awesome colors. However, I chose the Magnetic over the AG because my eyes caught something on the AG that would bug me to no end.

While looking at an AG, I noticed that the color of the small panel running on the side of the car below the door didn't quite match the panel above it. It was raining so it was clear to see. It was the same on both sides. This panel felt like plastic to me, and that would explain the slight color difference. Color on plastic will be slightly off compared to metal surfaces. I went inside the showroom and checked out the other AG and i could still see the color difference.

Don't get me wrong. I am not knocking the AG color at all. I was going to get AG with black roof. I think all the colors are like the AG, but the darker colors hides it better.

Maybe it's because we love the car so much, but it really is one of those cars where all the colors seem to look good on it.

This. At one point I thought I was going to score a 17 allocation at MSRP, and trying to figure out what exterior color was torture

AG+blue stripes

Yes, OW is like this too, slightly different color tone between the sheet metal and plastic bumpers. This is not unique to color, just the nature of painting different materials in the same spray booth. Perhaps not just not as apparent with metallic colors since they have a bit more depth

I was in for lightning blue and looked at the pics for a while and noticed the same mis-matched shades on plastic parts and the metal ones. :(
If they did prep work or heavier coat it wouldnt be that obvious

Ag black roof no stripes, my vote

Completely agree with this.

I'm not voting for you to get the same combo as me...but...I hadn't seen AG in person before ordering it but gambled and think it's a really great color for the car. We all have different tastes but don't let people tell you AG is boring...it's anything but boring.

I ordered magnetic black roof , black ott stripe which I love. That being said the grey with a black stripe and black roof looks killer as well.

Avalanche doesn't photograph well. I wasn't entirely sure I would like it but then an R appeared at a car show in the color and I fell in love.

Not a fan of stripes but this combo is just fricken sick. If I owned this car I would add an inner red pin stripe to close the two white stripes!!!!!

 

[krt22]

wow, the white stripes on the AG actually look really good.

I saw an AG with Black OTT in person and thought it looked great. I really like the muted tone - just seems more serious. No stripes and black roof probably even more so.

The exclusivity is a big plus as well since you won't see it on a regular production Ford. A matching Raptor would make for one badass garage.

My GT but you get the idea.
