I also purchased and got a free install of the new R8020 series Ultegra shifters/derailleurs and hydro brakes. My bike ended up about $400 less than the 2019 Ultegra model that they now offer. I still need to upgrade my wheels, but with the 11-spd 11-34 cassette and a 48/32 crank this bike really performs well on both the street and gravel.
