A little birdie tells me that there is an Omega Sedan sitting at Eagers Newstead in a colour called "sizzle". If there are any members in Brisbane that could confirm this and get a photo to post here that would be great. I wonder if it's just a test colour or whether it will become a reality?

Any more info i.e. is it a variant of red, blue etc etc?

I've no idea. That's why I was hoping someone could go down and take a photo for us.

it is a new shade of Red. I saw it on a SV6 that was being advertised in a magazine. Here are the pics.
sorry cant post pics cos my count is only 17. but if you head to carsales and type in sizzle you will see it come up.

Kinda reminds me of the old Cinnabar colour, just darker. Not sure I like it, but would have to see it in the metal.

That car in the carsales add must have been built in Oct or Nov so the new colour hasn't made it super easy to shift. Looks ok but will it be an Omega/ Berlina/statesman colour for sales rep's cars or a hero colour for the SS/ SV6 etc. I suspect the former.

I like that, but then, I was a big fan of Cinnabar back in the day too :)

red is a hard colour to photograph in the sun, ill put money on it, that it'll look different in the flesh.... better

Those photos don't do the colour justice at all. Saw a HSV Senator in it last night and it looked freakin awesome!

If it was a photo of an SS or SS/V, then it would look much nicer due to colour coding and nicer wheels, tinting etc etc, but still not as nice as red or black.

Bit like the Ignition colour, you either like it or hate it.
That thing is missing mag's and tint, prolly look fine then.
I could grow to like it i guess.

Holden designers need to take a good long hard look at themselves when it comes to colours...Poison Ivy, Sizzle, Wild Fire....

Poison Ivy and Wildfire look amazing on SV6's and SS's etc.

Keeps interest up, or test run for a new model.
Holden have released plenty of new colours during VE's life, not just recently.

So what month should we expect the new model ?
We might start seeing some camo cars running around soon ?

I pulled up next to a Poison Ivy SS (AFM badge) this morning - dark tints - I was looking it over and noticed the dash chocker with gadgets - Highway Patrol car.

If so , glad I chose the Alto Grey. Looks a tad to bronzy or rusty or something.
