Default word on possible Vogtland coilover group buy

due to low stock in NA, it would need to be a sizeable group buy, 10-15 orders, pre-paid, to even make it work. in addition, as the orders would have to go to germany, then come over on a boat, we're looking at something like an 8-week turnaround, for a total price around $960 + shipping and such. I'm also told the retail price of these things may raise $100 or so by the end of the year.

This would be through a trusted reseller, too.

Now how's the interest?

Default 1135 shipped from startup racing.

so still saving $150, but then there's the wait, true.
