Evening folks. Does anyone have a pic of what could be the velocity blue? Is it a metallic color?

We had a velocity blue in aus a few years back on the au falcon. If it’s that color I hate it. It’s like a metallic grabber but lighter...

It's a little odd that Ford hasn't officially shown the color since 2019 ordering is now open. Hiding the color at this point only hurts it's sales since nobody is going to order a color they've never seen.

Agree! It’s strange and bloody irritating

Thanks. Can’t decide if I hate it or love it
Hate might be too strong a word, but definitely not an improvement over LB. If that is Velocity Blue, and it is the same as the Aussie VB used on the Falcon, it is really a very generic blue. Not quite a dark blue, not quite a light blue, not really a bright blue, not a very metalic blue. Just...blue...

Disappointing.

Will be interesting to see in the wild. The lights at NYIAS can make color look a little more vibrant than they are. It seemed very similar to lightning blue, just lighter. I makes sense since with kona they have a proper dark blue so the light blue should be lighter.
I'm still happy I ordered lightning blue, it's bright yet still dark enough to have a tad of a menacing look...and it's a limited 2 year run :)

My 1998 GT is Bright Atlantic Blue. I thought that the VB in the NYIAS picture reminded me of it. My 98 color is one of the most beautiful colors I have ever seen on a production car. Folks often ask if it is a custom color or a repaint, even 20 years on.

Should have brought back Grabber Blue (obviously I'm biased) and I wish they would offer Nitrous Blue on the Mustang (again, biased, had an RS).

Hahaha.
I was looking around the ford dealer on Sunday. They had a Denim blue looking focus on the lot. I wanted to know the color and guess what the window sticker said?

"BLUE"!!!! I was ok, well straight to the point.

Similar to Bright Atlantic Blue? :shrug:

Bright Atlantic Blue looks better so far than this new blue.

That's exactly what I thought when I saw the posted picture. I will have to see it in person to decide. It's one of those colors to me.
