I wouldnt own it but it was the stand out car out of the entire motor show . it was funny as i was with a guy that werks for holden and he didnt even know it was being released
on a side note the motor show has slipped each year since it left the ekka grounds IMHO

Have seen it on the road, not into it myself, but it is better than Ford's barbie doll purple Menace.

Its about time Holden realesed some interesting colours. Ford I believe have had the best colour range, weather you like them or not. Ego, Blueprint, Menace, Octane, Rapid, Toxic, these colours all stand out. Up until the VE Holden have had red, purple, tiga mica, acid green, and black. Not the greatest choice.

That purple colour extremely GAY!
I wonder if they have samples of new Ford colours on Holden Forums? I suspect not. |

Is that Rick Kelly's new car?? : The colour match on most VEs I have seen has been shocking.

I guess it would depend if you like specific colours to start with.
I actually really like the Purple colour but don't think much of the Green one

even with the purple that car bores me. is it just me or does the VE have the most boring SS model ever.
purple colour is horrid btw, the green is also pretty bad. i liked the old holden leafy green that was more metalic. no idea of its name but it was so much better.

Yeah it looks alright, but I would never own one in that colour though.
It looks like the perfect colour, for a chick's car. |

I love that purple colour, its pretty sweet! (But Not sure I'd have one in that colour)
Dont like that green though. I reckon that both those colours would be better suited on a hot rod. |
