I just purchased my first road bike -- an '05 Felt F65 -- It's a great blue color.... Not as killer looking as the F55 in the semi-matte black stealth color, but it's a proud looking ride.
Call me vain, but I wanted a bike not only for how great the ride was (I test rode several in the price range), but also how I felt about how it looks. To wit.... I think Treks are great bikes, but their paint jobs are horrible. Just my opinion!
Looking good has a lot to do with feeling good.....

..... but so do the carbon stays....
