I don't know the model, but Specialized - along with a number of other name brand companies - has a solid reputation. Buy what turns YOU on and make sure it fits you well. Many of the folks on this forum (including me) started with a less expensive bicycle, and in a year or so upgraded to a more advanced model. It is called the N+1 syndrome.
I'm sure others will offer their thoughts. The best thing is to have a bike that you love and is comfortable - nothing gets you riding more than that.
Good luck.
