Bilstein B12 coilover group buy?

Any one interested in Bilstein B12 coilover for CL9 TSX?

I talked with Marcus (HeelToe) and he will check the availability and price info next week. No price info yet but Marcus estimates the shipping could take 3-4 months long... nothing firm yet so more info next week.

However, I'd like to know if anyone else is interested, too? If enough people are maybe we can set up a group buy?

FYI, the price on Bilstein website is 749 Euro..

For info about Bilstein B12 on TSX please refer to TodaSi's post:

it would have to be right at $1000 shipped (including top hats) for it to be worth it for me... otherwise, i'm going with the neuspeed supercup kit...

@calvintwr: Thanks for the correction, you're definitely right.

@808havok_tsx: I haven't got further info yet but I would think the price would be higher than $1000... of course let's hope for the best

@fanbanlo: The above article posted by TodaSi has been followed up and also tf500 from Australia has share his opinion. (Thanks guys!) For me Bilstein has great reputation and traditionally strikes a good balance between comfort and handling. It's not adjustable but if the setup is good I don't mind having no adjustability. Bilstein test their suspension at Nurburgring. It might be partially marketing but I feel in the end you pay more and you get something in return.

Will update later..

I'm curious–since they are for the EU Accord and not sold state-side, if the B12 are warranted by Bilstein for our TSX. Its not the most important of considerations coming from a well-known maker, but something I would like to know. One way, or the other.
