Felt had some nice steel a couple of years ago, the F4130. I think the tallstack stem turned a lot of people off. The MSRP was 2500 but my local Felt dealer had to drop theirs down to $1500 or so to sell it.
Specialized has the fancy 40th Anniversary Allez, but it's $4k for frame/fork/wool sweater/saddle/etc.
If you have a Jamis dealer anywhere nearby, they have some sweet production steel. Quest Elite is a damn fine bike. $1700-ish
