Taken today, from the Brake Department.

outside lighting is everything. If l didn't know what that color looks like in person, I would have ordered it by that picture.

Do you know the story behind it? Did you get to look inside?
I did not take these pictures. I am not employed by Ford Motor Company.

Testing Areas and Pre-Production Test Vehicles are very dangerous for untrained personnel. Testing areas are highly restricted not just to keep out prying eyes but to keep the public safe. These vehicles, especially at this point in development and in this particular area are extremely dangerous. Any outside presence, even in the parking area, could result in injury or death.

Please stay clear of testing sites.

agree, the AG is a tough call. This particular photo with the black roof and black w/red stripes it looks awesome and very different. But in other photos I've seen not so much. The lighting seems to really change the appearance of this color and there in lies the problem. Bright sun light seems to almost wash out the color and looks to much like a primer IMO. Lower light as in this photo it appears darker and actually has more color presents. For that reason I think it's a color you have to actually see in person. Would hate to make a $ 60K purchasing decision based on a photo and then be disappointed :headbonk:

What you see in that photo is the exact way I ordered my R, except for black roof. Now I'm thinking I'll add he back roof.

I've seen the Audi version of Avalanche gray in person. It grows on you quick, but the Audi was monotone. The black stripes are needed, in my opinion.

You don’t want to know
Let's be careful out there - neither version of Audi's "Avalanche Gray" is even close to the GT350's Avalanche Gray.
