Does anyone have pricing information on the 2015 RCA? i've read that it will be less than the current model.

My local dealer quoted me $9800 for a 2015 model to be deliver in late November. I do not know if that was MSRP.

To my knowledge Cervelo has not changed the MSRP in the US. Pricing to dealers remains unchanged.

I think if you ever use the term deal in the context of getting a good price on something, unless it's buying and selling companies or perhaps large parcels of real estate, this is the wrong bike for you.

my dealer has also quoted me same pricing as 2014 model.

I am actually not quite sure what you mean. But this is clearly not the bike for me.

From the article...

We brought you news of Cervélo’s updated S5 and a first ride on the Canadian company’s new entry-level R2 recently, now it’s time to have a look at the RCa, which has been overhauled for 2015.

The big news with the RCa, the company's flagship model, is that along with a raft of updates to make it lighter and stiffer, as you'd expect, is that Cervélo have slashed the price of the frameset from £7,500 to £6,500. Yes, it’s still eye-wateringly expensive but now you have a bit more change left over. The new RCa is still made at hand-built Cervélo's Project California facility.

It makes no rational economic sense. So if you buy it, it's basically money-is-no-object-I-want-the-best-at-whatever-the-cost.

for 10k it would be nice to have something personalized (ie. custom painted at the least although i appreciate that adds weight....)

Limited or not its not much use beyond café rides if it doesn't fit like a glove. For that money the only drawcard for me would be getting custom geometry as offered by Scappa for the Purosangue model - effectively same weight with custom geometry and paint.

He rides a Pinarello F8 so I think in his mind he's got that!
