The output of git status is controlled by your .gitconfig file. The default for changed and untracked files is a dim Red but you likely want Red Bold which is the bright (default) red you have in the prompt.
Add the following to your .gitconfig file:
[color]
ui = true
[color "status"]
changed = red bold
untracked = red bold
added = green bold
For anyone else referencing this in the future, the accepted colours are normal, black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan, and white as well a single optional modifier bold, dim, ul, blink, or reverse. If two colours are given the first is the foreground, and the second is the background.
