What Colour is Ford Stealth?
There is no official Ford color named "Stealth" in Ford's current paint lineup. If you’ve seen the term used, it’s usually a nickname, a dealer promotion, or refers to a dark finish such as a matte black wrap rather than a factory paint color.
Official color availability and common interpretations
Ford publishes a color catalog for each model year, and a color named "Stealth" does not appear in the standard palettes as of 2024–2025. When people talk about "Stealth," they are often describing one of several possibilities:
- Matte or satin black finishes applied as aftermarket wraps or factory options labeled informally as "stealth" in marketing or by enthusiasts.
- Very dark gray or black tones in Ford’s official colors (for example Carbonized Gray, Magnetic Gray, or Agate Black) that might be described as stealthy in casual conversation.
- A limited edition or dealer-promoted package that uses the name "Stealth" for branding, but the actual paint color is a standard Ford shade with a different official name.
To confirm the exact shade on a specific vehicle, check the paint/trim code on the vehicle’s data plate and compare with Ford's official color charts for that model year. If you have a model/year in mind, I can look up the exact options available for that configuration.
How to verify the color on your Ford
Follow these steps to verify the true color of a Ford you own or are considering:
- Find the paint color code on the driver’s side door jamb sticker or in the owner’s manual. The code is usually a short alphanumeric string.
- Look up the color code in Ford's official color catalog for the model year and trim of the vehicle (online through Ford's official site or your dealer's portal).
- Compare the official color name associated with that code. If the name isn’t "Stealth," then the vehicle does not have an officially named color by that term.
- Consider photos of the vehicle in different lighting to see if the shade matches a known Ford color, or evaluate if a wrap/graphics might be responsible for a misleading impression.
If you’re uncertain, contact a Ford dealer or a qualified body shop; they can read the color code and confirm whether the finish is a factory color or a wrap.
Additional context: color naming trends
Color naming in the automotive industry can be inconsistent across markets and over time. Even when a color is not an official Ford name, customers may encounter regional names or dealer-specific labels. Always verify with the official chart for your exact vehicle configuration.
Summary
In short, Ford does not currently publish a factory color called "Stealth." The term is usually a nickname for a dark or matte finish, a wrap, or a branding label used in non-official contexts. To know the exact shade, check the vehicle’s paint code against Ford’s official color catalog for the model and year, or consult a Ford dealer for precise confirmation.
