None that I’ve found or seen. There are silver, hot pepper red, and carbonized grey pictures floating around social media. You can see Azure grey and Shelter green in the press photos for the announcement event. You can see black and white from various walkarounds of the ROW version on YouTube. Cactus grey can be seen in the production facility leaks from a few months ago. Only color I haven’t seen is velocity blue.

As someone who owns a Velocity Blue Bronco, I can tell you those Raptor pictures in that link are not Velocity Blue.
The blue on it is Lightning Blue which was used on 2020 Rangers and 2021 First Edition Broncos and is also used on the ROW G6.

That’s a 22 in Blue Lightning for ROW. That’s a different color than Velocity Blue.

Ah that makes more sense. Originally I was going to order velocity blue because thats what I thought it would be, but when the B and P was up, the real velocity blue did not do it for me. I'm glad I ended up getting Azure Grey now.

I would’ve enjoyed Velocity Blue but unfortunately it’s the same color as the local college sports team who competes with my Alma Mater and I can’t have anyone thinking I’m a fan of the wrong team.

Azure Grey doesn’t sit right with me. I think I’m definitely in the minority on that one though. My sales guy says it flies off the lot when one comes in.

Yeah I wasn't really sure of it in the beginning, but it's kind of a mix of my favorite car color, gun metal grey and my actual favorite color, blue. And then when I saw it on the reveal, I knew it was the one.

In the direct sunlight, Velocity Blue is a good looking color but otherwise it's fairly underwhelming and doesn't look right on some body styles.
It does pair well with gloss white racing stripes or gloss black trim/stripes/wheels.

I opted for Hot Pepper Red Metallic since Code Orange won't be on the NA version of the Raptor.

The entire color lineup is about as exciting as a fart on a humid hot day after mowing the grass.

Only two non-metallic color options. I especially don't like that pepper red color, it reminds me when cranberry was all the rage for cars in the early 2000's. Looks like something you would see on a Saturn or Mercury. JC.... Ford its ok to release a standard red color.

Hell I might have even entertained a banana yellow Raptor if it had been an option.

I originally had my order in as shelter green, but over time I couldn't get over that anywhere outside of indirect sunlight it was going to look like metallic baby poop. A non-metallic green would be have been gucci.

Or a sand color would have been awesome.
