Someone posted a link to the http://gm.wieck.com pics yesterday and looking at them (the bottom ones) I thought it wasn't bad, though not good enough to convince me to change my order from Nickel. I don't normally really like silver cars but Nickel in the VE has got something!
However, seeing the 'live' pics (the top ones) Morpheus looks more like the Cadbury colour we all originally suspected it was (see old threads on Morpheus) - hideous!! :spew: :spew: :spew:

yeah its a lot lighter than the drawings at the bottom....
personally it would look better as a dark deeper purple like the VY-VZ came in....

Yep sorry but pass.... I'll stick with Red...
Going against the grain here, but that looks Horrid IMHO. Mind you, others will like it and buy it, so good luck to them.

It looks okay in the official photos, but the bright lights of the Motor Show photos make it look a bit lavender. A few of Holden's recent hero colours are very light sensitive like that - Ignition, for instance, just looks like bright, solid orange under artificial lights but is much nicer under natural sunglight. Morpheous might be the same.

yes, u need to see the car in person to see how good the colour is. Its no where near as cadbury looking as those motorshow pics make it look.
I remember there being a few VZ SV6's come through in that colour, and it certaining wasn't that offensive

It's OK, the promotional pics look better.
It does have a bit of that camelion paint going for it, where the colour changes depending on the viewing angle. Is that why the called it Morpheous?.

cool - just got to wait for HSV to update their website then.
when I looked there last night, Morpheous was not a choice.
personally it would look better as a dark deeper purple like the VY-VZ came in....
I reckon that purple was too dark.
def not for a muscle holden car like the SS. more suited to the fpv
please don't start a holden vs f..d thing
hsv, please dont humiliate the 'gts' name with that colour :cussing:
what colours have past GTS's come in? I would suggest that their may have been some "lairy" colours in the 70s, but the GTS still has a good name.
the fact that Holden has provided another colour for their hero models is a good thing, as to date the colour choice has been very limited.
geez...even classic lines are inclusive of GST....:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
just a shame that 2c is no longer legal currency :)
I reckon it might be time for a poll to see which colours Holden should have for their hero cars.

yeah bloody bastards...putting there hand in everything :p
I was thinking i go for a VZ HSV but at around $45K for a decent one i have now pretty much made my mind up to spend the extra $10K and get a new VE SSV :yahoo: :driving: :yahoo:
just wanna get a decent deposit together so the loan is smaller and so i have some money to do some mods straight away.
so will wait a couple of months before i order one...:thumbsup:

There is a VY s pac in the town i live in that colour. Had never seen another one like it, it has been around for ages. Im not a massive fan of it, as someone said earlier at first i thought it may have been an ex-cadbury car...
And i second bringing back cherry black mmmm.....

Looks like it is on the Holden website, but not the HSV one yet. Not that i expected much from the HSV website anyway...
Im not sold on it... hopefully I see one in the flesh soon, then I can decide.

I like it. I have seen a VZ SV6 in this colour in the flesh and I don't think it looks anything like the cadbury colour.

I'd have to agree. The official promo shots on wieck looked good but under those lights it really does look lighter.
Must see it in the flesh.

maybe Man-genta colour that was used on the Torana concept would be a better choice then??!!

I'm sure the camera it was taken with doesn't do the pic justice, nor does the unrealistic lighting conditions, I'm sure it'll look better in natural light.

unfortunately it looks like it's not just the bright lights. It nowhere near as dark as the publicity pics. Have a look at holden.com.au http://www.holden.com.au//images/colourandtrim/commodore/ve/image/ssv/img_MorpheousMetallic.jpg
It really is more pink than purple. Oops!:toetap:
Maybe pink cars are making a comeback and we don' realise? I guess they're at least one step ahead of us :deal: <- sales figures

I spose you gotta try something unique.. Just like that new ford bright orange.. kinda makes you squint, but there will always be ppl's who like the
colour and I have seen a lot worse than this purple..
BigFella
07-02-2007, 09:08 PM
not a fan, i thought ford has the most shocking colours.....holden are starting now..
they are popular at the start but good luck with re sale in a few years! that colour will be shocking.

Looks ok now but will date the car - in a couple of years time people will hate it - Always go for the classic colours - the blacks, the reds, whites and silvers. They just never date.

This SS was on display at the Brisbane Motorshow and I can vouch for the fact that it doesn't work in real life. Any man ordering one in that colour will have his sexuality brought into question.

see i though cosmo was ok, put this purple is a bit too pink in the photos, havent seen it in real life.
did you think the same for the people who bought the cosmo ss' vulture?

I don't mind the cosmo colour, it's very dark and looks great. Getting into a morpheus coloured SS, well I think you'd need to be dressed in high heels and fishnets for it to work.

I think its not bad but not sure if I would buy it. Might look good on a Calais V dumped with 20" S/sports and Pontiac G8 lip spoiler :)
It will stand out down the track. Like when you see a purple XB GT or purple HQ GTS and your jaw drops.
Still cant believe everyone loves Redhot so much. My mate has it on his VX SS and its faded something shocking. I guess if you have a garage its ok. But most red cars I see a few years old are faded badly.
