I test rode the exact bike (except it was equipped with Dura-Ace) three weeks ago. I thought it looked cool (the celeste one), and the paint was sweet. It wasn't as light as I had expected it to be, but it rode nice and comfortable. It didn't feel as fast as I had hoped either, and I had just gotten off a Giant TCR C2 that I test-rode right before it, and the Giant felt significantly quicker and ready to roll. But I think it's a nice bike, and at $2200 equipped with the 105 group, it isn't ridiculously expensive for a carbon bike. However, I think there are better values out there such as the offerings from Fuji, Giant, etc. - but if rolling in Italian style is your cup of tea, then go for it!!
