There's a 2016 Focus Cayo AL with Ultegra 6800 2x11 on FB near me for $500. That seems to me like quite a deal. And for some reason in my mind I feel like the Focus will be faster. And also prob look cooler with the 50mm carbon wheels I have.

Talk me off the ledge. Tell me my Allez is fine and I don't need new(er) shinier things!

Steel is returning to the pro peloton. Too many riders have had enough with their bikes falling apart at dangerous moments. If you have "gotta replace" lust check out Waterford Racing models.
