Drove past the Elizabeth factory today to see about 50 solid yellow utes exactly the same spec in the holding yards. Simliar colour to perhaps the SV6000 with the SSZ/CV8Z rims. Must be Holden preparing to sell off the last of the VZ ute bodies.

Maybe Holden think, Yellow is the new White.
There will be some marketing spin on the VX utes with VZ lights... lol |

looks like a car park full of bananas!, which is appropriate since you'd have to be a monkey to pick one over a falcon :the_finge

Every car Holden builds at the moment is sold already. They are working a lot of overtime to fullfill all the VZ orders before the VE starts production. As for trying to get rid of ute bodies.. .why? They will be continuing production of VZ ute, wagon and crewman.
And yes, all those yellow utes are 'Thunder' limited edition utes.
