I am in the exact spot as the OP. I got my commuter (Kona) last summer, but it is now time for the fun road bike. I've test ridden several manufacturers (Felt, Specialized, Cannondale) and geometries ("endurance", "race") and the CAAD10 is my choice. I just wish that I had decided a bit sooner, so I could have looked for a non-2013 color scheme. Now I just need to save a bit more $.
