Another 2008 stealth candidate is the Specialized Sirrus Pro. The 2008 model has not yet made its appearance in their web pages, but I've seen it in a dealer's catalog. Roughly it is as follows:

Full carbon frame, very similar but not identical to the 2007 Sirrus LTD.
Fork, seatpost, and seat stays have Zertz Inserts (buzz beaters)
Shimano 105 groupset
Triple crankset 50/39/30
Wide range cassette 11-28

Price is $2050. Lower than the '07 LTD which was carbon with Ultegra. It is a lot like they took the frame of the LTD ($2400) and married it with the component parts of the '07 Sirrus Pro ($1300).
