luxpow Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 That color looks different every time I look at it. I fell in love at first sight when I saw it in person. But when I see it in pics and videos now, it doesnt appear that special. How do you like the color. Does it look fantastic only in sunlight or other special lighting conditions ?

We've had our Titanium exactly two weeks..... and I still can't explain if I'm sold on the color. In the right sun, it is great! On cloudless days (which we've had many in the last two weeks), it's just kinda gray; but sometimes has a green tint. In the sun, and at the right angle, it's a darned purty metallic blue. But the real kicker. is.... that my wife likes it!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also chose the ebony interior and now praying the whole package doesnt end up looking lifeless. Really loved the light interior but too much maintenance I feared especially with perforated leather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 We were sold on it and would have gotten one if we could have found one in stock with the right options. We felt the Luxe was different and would not show dirt quite as bad so that was our first choice and we got lucky as they pulled one off the delivery truck at our local dealer about 12 hours after we left the night before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the real kicker. is.... that my wife likes it!! I agree with this 100%. My reasons for choosing it was that I didn't think much of the other available colors except black. From previous experience I knew did not want to care or live with a black Edge, so the Too good blue was a default. I like it well enough and as jacksprat mentioned it does pop in the right light.

DRbillZ Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 Took one for a long test drive. Meh... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knickerbocker Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I respect everyone else's choices for their vehicles, but when we chose our Edge the Kona Blue was more appealing than the Too Good to be Blue. When I saw TGTBB last week I was happy we chose Kona instead. It all comes down to personal preference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjm623 Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 I test drove one and ended up with metallic white. I was coming from tuxedo black f150, amazing color detail when waxed it was practically like looking in a mirror. The other 364 days it looked dirty. I like blue, but was not thrilled with TGTBB, it literally looks like a pair of denim jeans to me. They could have called it denim blue as far as I'm concerned. I like the switch to white, much easier to hide water spots and what not. I wish they had a few more color options on the '16 edge. The black looks nice, wouldn't touch another black vehicle though. I think the metallic white looks classy, and so does the red and kona blue. Don't know what color I wish they had, but none of them screamed I need that color, like tuxedo black did.

Hermans Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 ^^^^^^ This is the last year (2016} for TGTBB and I really like it. The 2017s will have a blue called Blue Jeans Blue. It's currently on Ford trucks and the Explorer. I had an FFH that was Bordeaux Red. 2013 was the last year except they brought back the same color with a different name for the 2017s.

Interesting info, thanks! Not my style but I can appreciate everyone's eye is different on the color spectrum. How else would we see those puke green Kia Sol's that were big for a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
segald Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 I am glad others feel the same way...when I first saw Too Good To Be Blue in the brochure, I really liked it. Pictures on the internet looked real nice. When I saw the true color, I realized I didn't like it. It changes depending on the sunlight and sometimes it was green, blue, Aqua...my wife hated it. We ended up with ingot silver metallic...whit would have been the preferred color but we've had white for the last 18 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomMayhem Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 I went with Magnetic Metallic, then blacked out the Grille and Wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjm623 Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 That magnetic is sharp, I like my tri platinum white, I think a strong second would have been the magnetic or kona blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

always on edge Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 I love it. I get compliments at stop lights all the time. Kona Blue, although a beautiful color, was too 'loud' for me. To Good To Be Blue, with it's grey/green hues is curiously deep, yet subdued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpionking0102 Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 I have a 2016 Sport optioned out in "To Good To Be Blue". You either like it or hate it. It's one of those "chameleon" colors which changes color in different lighting conditions. In my garage it looks "deep blue sea". With an overcast sky it looks steel blue gray. But, in the bright sun it looks like some sort of blue green. All my friends love this color and I get a lot of compliments when I take it out cruising. Hopefully, this color won't be around long driving up it's wow factor. Remember "Lava Red"? A word to the wise, if you have the 21 inch wheels, don't damage them. They are $1200 and change each!

akirby Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 It's already gone for 2017 - replaced by blue jeans which in itself is a nice color but doesn't change much based on the light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
