Not sure what year, but the Pista is a track bike. Bianchi may be able to help with the year- not sure of their codes in serial numbers. Looks to be in really nice condition...

It's a Pista from circa 2006. They called this color "gang green."

Agreed it's 2006 Pista, $550 new for complete bike, so I would say $100ish for frame and fork would be reasonable. You can also ask the guys over in Singlespeed & Fixed Gear they would have the best idea of what it is worth.
