I’m actually not a huge blue fan, I prefer bright colors like grabber lime, grabber yellow, twister orange, triple yellow, etc. However, when I saw Ford was bringing back grabber blue for this year, that was the color I had to have when I placed my order.

For me, I require some metal flake in my paint on cars. I feel any shiny paint without it is like nail polish. With the metal flake, the color changes based on the angle to the sun which I love.

That would make me lean towards the Atlas Blue.

I also think there is more market interest in a darker car and the grabber Blue will have a smaller market in case resale might be in the cards.

IMHO. yours may differ.

It sure does pop!

Hate to be a PITA again but could I ask about the wheels and which spoiler that is?
They are the PP1 wheels, I believe they are 19x9 front and 19x9.5 rear. Same for the spoiler, the one that comes with PP1.

Just a little over 500 with newly installed cold air with tune. At the time I got it the EPA had not certified the 2022 superchargers. You can get them now but I will wait and get one next spring. Very happy with it. No complaints here. Only 15 are being made and I think only 3 are not spoken for. I got lucky and got number 1.
What is it exactly that they are only making 15 of? Roush 2022s, or Atlas Blue Roush with tan interior? It's one of the nicer Roush cars I've seen.

Trak Pak Roushs, they don't know if or when they will make Roush stage 3's. Parts and commodity issues I was told. Out of the 15 mine was the only Atlas Blue with the active wing. They ran out of actuators for the other cars so they just got the standard spoiler. The other 14 were Oxford White, grabber blue, 1 red and I think only 1 gray metallic.

I'm torn because after looking at the video posted above, I feel like Atlas looks like every other blue car on the road (which is what I *don't* want haha), but the pictures of Grabber remind me of Cookie Monster. Atlas looks more expensive while Grabber is much flashier. This decision is impossible lmao
I am really glad no one is making me replace my Velocity Blue 21 because I'd be disappointed. I didn't order DIB in 2015 because it was too purple. Lightning Blue was a little boring. Atlas isn't terrible, but it's a little darker than I'd like. That said, I'd take it over Grabber every day. Grabber is too cartoonish for me. I know many like it; I am just not in that camp. It looks like a race car and that's not what I want to drive.

It depends on the car. I don’t kno if it’s just me, but some cars of the same color do very in shade/metallic content to my eyes. This is especially noticeable with velocity blue and grabber/twister orange. 🤷‍♂️

Grabber blue is a polarizing, love it or hate it color. I'm on the love it side, as I wouldn't have any other color for my mach 1. Shark blue Porsche, yas marina blue bmw, boost blue civic type r. Hell even that rav4 blue looks awesome to me.
