if long and low is what you want very hard to beat and only set of wheels is 400 euro to buy ( if this is your first year with an latex tube and conties 4000s this is a very solid race wheel)
fuji norman if you find a last year model at good price will give you a faster bike for 2 grand ( higher stack and shorter reach)
there is a few on ebay germany.

If this is your first bike you should take on board what Peter says and pay attention to the Stack & Reach numbers of each frameset. Those numbers will help you choose between a long and low or a short & high frameset.

Ideally you should choose the bike based on what will get you the best fit. I would suggest that most AG's getting their first bike would be better suited to one that is short and high. Most of the midrange bikes are very adjustable these days to allow you get a decent position regardless of the S&R numbers (Felt being one) but the likes of Cervelo & Specialized have made the move to geometries that are more tall and short in recent years.

Above advice is based on two much time on the interweb and not professional experience.
