I decided to give carbon another look and decided to buy a Specialized Roubaix Elite. It is a 2007 so I could save a little money and to put a little money toward new shoes etc. It is silver with black and red accents. I added a red Fizik saddle and Look Keo pedals and Cont 4000 tires. I have not ridden it yet because of a crazy lack of time. I will write more when I have ridden it. I am a big fan of steel however I am open minded.
