    Default I have seen a mysterious beast!

    I was driving along the highway the other day and I saw a VN with calais grill, painted in !!!!!!!!South Australian Interceptor blue!!!!!!!!! I know I know it's crazy I couldn't beleive it either I was sure they stoped making them blue with the last VL 5 liter interceptors but maybe just maybe they made VN's too?. I can't imagine anyone would paint a VN in that colour (except me), so what's the theory? did they make South Australian Blue highway patrol VN's or not?

    Thanks guys, If you ask me that colour is all the way sexy! because back when I was a kid and you were over in South Australia you would see a light blue V8 Commodore with crazy ass fluro stripes all over it, that used to put some fear into you

    It might look a bit darker when it's not on youtube with the white background? but yeah that's the colour I saw on the VN the other day. Same as the VL's had and the VL's are fairly common, well not really but you do see one once in a while

    i love that vl. i saw it at the casterton drags in 2005. a mate of mine raced him and only got beaten by a couple of seconds. hahaha
    also i am more than sure i have seen that light blue on a vn at least twice. once was at the falls festival years. ago. i remember commoenting on how i like the other light blue better than the intercepter blue.. and i know i have seen another light blue one somewhere but i can't remember where

    yeah VN's were the last in that colour. i have a val that colour, been in the family since it was a cop car. it's cool, but it's off the road now, i don't think i could go back after the 'comfort' of the vs - like an aircon that works and pwr steering!
