The money has been spent.
If you enjoy it, the dollar cost average of the price to use is little, as it will with car maintain a good chunk of its value even if you overspent.
If it were mine I would be ordering some Pinarello graphics.
Check the bearings for sound lubrication, clean the drivetrain and enjoy the bike.
Spend some additional money for those things or for the tools required and ride it a lot before the weather turns.

Pinarello never made cheap bikes. But they did manufacture 'entry level' race bikes as well as 'top level' race bikes. Brand name commands a price premium when in good shape and with any panto'd components.
If it puffs your sails, rides well for your miles and brings a smile = a bargain over its' useful life.
I have owned two.
edit: Different feel than road Kleins. IMHO.
