Some other options in this general price range:

Canyon Ultimate CF SL Disc 8.0, full Ultegra R8000-series gruppo, DT Swiss P1800 Spline db wheelset, 7.6 kg--$2799

Orbea Orca M30 Team D, full R105 7-series gruppo, DTSwiss E1850 Spline DB23 TLR CL wheelset--$2999

Orbea Orca M20 TeamD, full Ultegra R8-series gruppo, same wheelset as above--$3299

BMC SLR02 Disc Four, full 105 R7-series gruppo, Shimano RS170 wheelset--$3199

Bianchi Aria Disc 105, full 105 R-7 series gruppo, Fulcrum Racing 618 Disc wheelset--$2900

and if you don't have to have disc brakes, you can into a Cervelo R2 with 105 R7-series gruppo for a mere $2400.

And the list goes on... There are tons of good options at or around the $3000 mark right now. I would recommend that you do a little research at this price-point and see if there is something else you like more. That Cannondale is, I'm sure, a great bike. But it does have older groupset components on it and at that price, again, there are some just killer alternatives. Just my take and your mileage obviously could vary. Good luck, whatever you do.
