I still ride a Nishiki TrI-A that I purchased new in 1985 at Daniel Boone Cycles in Houston for about $600. It has the Shimano 600 group and Araya rims. Over the years I've had to replace wear items like the freewheel, chain, chainwheel, tires, etc. but it still runs great and fits me perfectly, so why buy a new bike? Model colors for that year were black/yellow (mine) and pink/yellow. In 1986, a blue/white color scheme was added for the Tri-A, I believe. Also in 1986, a top of the line model appeared, the Team Issue, with the Dura-Ace component group.
