Message	What Z1 does with 3ZC is NOT a group buy. Z1 simply polls for product demand and when they feel enough people want the product they mark it down, then announce that 3ZC members can get it at a reduced price. 3ZC in no way offers financial support for this, except to offer web-board space. A real group buy involves an intermediary who places a large order for a product then resells that product at cost. "The 300ZX Turbo is a dance; it's a song; it's rolling, roaring automotive art. There is no color that doesn't suit it. There is no mood-lifting chemical substance it can't replace." - Automobile Magazine
