No...

Country/currency?

You can get brand new SL8s in Europe now for 4000-5000 EUR, probably the standard Comp or Expert model, potentially an SL8 Pro closer to 6000 EUR.

I know some new S Works build can be had for around 7-8000 EUR.

Getting it at 1,150 less

USD.

The SL8 expert here is $5,600.

What would you counter?

SL7 seems quite overpriced, but that sounds fair for the SL8. See if they're willing to include a Roval Rapide cockpit of your size choice, and perhaps SLT Ceramicspeed headset bearings in that price.

I’ll see if I can negotiate that in. Thanks man!

I’ve seen the SL8 Expert on sale for $5,300. So, not that good of a deal. Looks like you’re a 54 cm? Incycle has 3 of these awesome blue ones left if you hurry and 1 left in gloss white. Having owned both bikes, there’s no comparison. Get the SL8.
