Not seen this info published anywere. But I'd say very few.

I have a document on the colours of the 2004 GTO's to America at home - they had purple haze in the colour range too.

Not the VY SS you were after. But of the 15,728 GTO's shipped to the USA in 2004, 700 were Cosmo Purple = 4.45%. 366 Manual & 334 Auto.

So a Purple VX SS would be rare beast I'd say.

I have to say I don't think I have ever seen a purple vx? SS of otherwise, of course now you have asked the question i will probably drive down the street and see heaps. But at the moment am wondering if they made them in purple in vx? My gut is saying that was a colour for vy or vz? Got me very curious now. We need an insider from Holden with access to their database!

the 'haze' purple vx ss's we're for testing public reaction to the colour. it was either 6 or 12 made, just like the vx s's made in devil yellow, i'm pretty sure there was only 6 made. if i found one in manual i would jump on it so quick.

I've heard of a few Cosmo (VY purple) VXs, and have seen one Devil Yellow one, and one Hothouse Green VU ute.

I've seen a couple of Purple Haze VXs pop up on eBay too.

Typically, the hero colours demand a slightly higher re-sale value, but even higher, when it's on an out-going model, like Tiger Mica on Series 3 VS utes.
