MSRP for the 2011 Carbon 5 105 is $2149 on the Cannondale website. The Alloy Synapse 5 with 105 group is closer to the price you're quoting. Anything with Dura Ace is going to be expensive, no matter who is selling it, or what material it is made from.

BTW, I'm trying a Carbon 6 with Apex this weekend to see how it comares with the new Roubaix Elite.
