    Default uncommon colours?

    i was driving around the other day and i saw a VE in a green that ive never seen before, it was kinda dark metallic cant really describe it, anyone know the one im talking about? is it a rare colour or have i just not seen many around before?

    also my uncle has a blue SV6 he reckons the colour isnt made anymore, its kinda dark blue i havent seen many around like it, has it been discontinued or is he bullshitting?

    The colour of my 2007 Calais is K-pow. It changes colour, depending on the light, from purple to dark blue. I understand the colour was discontinued very quickly which probably explains why I have never seen another VE in that colour.

    Just saw a semi load of Poison Ivy in the special ones with yellow steel wheels and grey bumpers .... on their way to HSV ... was even some wagons.

    Gonna look nice as Clubby's. Bit like the VN SV5000's of days gone by.

    Went to the Holden dealership today and had a bit of a look at the new Poison Ivy colour - I love it! Very different to a lot of the greens that are coming out lately, quite classy I think - but fun too!

    My mum is trading in her ford explorer soon for a VE (we've been a holden family for so long, whatever possessed her to buy a ford i'll never know lol) and she wants the green and i don't really like it and an tryin to convince her to go another colour. But that poison ivy colour is actually pretty nice in comparison to that other green. Wonder if i can convince her to get this green.

    I love the Poison Ivy.... I'll be interested to see the new wild fire too.... it's like a bright yellow/orange... (more yellowish) I've seen pics on the Holden sight but want to see it in person.
    Also there is a green I've only seen once. It was on a Clubby, I've been calling it F#$% OFF GREEN because it's soooooo bright and head turning. It's like the car is glowing even tho it's broad daylight. It's almost yellow but deffinatly green... maybe limeish. And it's nothing like the Atomic Green. Does anyone know what it is?
    Dear Santa...... I can explain!!!
