Hi Guys,

Can anyone direct me too a decent resolution picture of a car painted in Holdens Cobra Metallic?

Apparently this colour was short lived and was only available on the VE Sportwagon range for a 3 month period according to the local Holden Dealership before it was dropped.

I got a brief glimpse of a wagon in town today painted in this colour and I may have found the new colour for my HJ Coupe!

The dealership had no old catalogues with the colour in them and I can only find thumb-nails on the web which are not big enough to make a decision on.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Allan

Cant help you with a decent pic, but it was also available on sedans too - Berlina, Calais, Calais-V, Stato & Caprice.

Might help widen your search.

The best description I can give it is a slightly washed-out version of Tiger Mica (the orange used i

GO here to the NZ holden website and click on the button for cobra metallic.
I think the photo I posted above has a lot of reflection which makes the colour look a bit off.

it was a very limited colour, not popular so Holden dropped it :(
unlike colours like Ignition that they took away and brought back again!!
(I too work for a Holden dealership :) )
