I would go with Red.

True. However, I think the price difference is dropping, and if, or when, I do this it would be to get a very nice bike that I'll keep for at least 5 years plus. So a $1500 price difference wouldn't dissuade me from Di2. However, if there's no real reason to go Di2, I certainly wouldn't mind pocketing the difference.

Hence, price is a secondary concern, not price is no object.
