Here are 2 reviews of the BMC:

Pez:

 

If you are looking for performance, and have no style/exclusivity issues, have a look at: Cervelo Soloist & R3, as well as the top Felt road frame. I dont like ISP designs, but if you dont mind them, the Scott Addict & Look 595 (I heard a Cajees were selling them at good prices)

 

Of the above, I sort of lean most towards the Soloist.

 

Lastly, if you want something more uniqe, take a look at the De Rosa Idol, which Garzelli used to win some stages at the '07 Giro:

I think an Idol with some of those red Fulcrom Racing zero wheels wil look very nice.

Sorry, I forgot to mention Colnago. If it fits your budget, how about one of these:

The BMC could be seen as a dutchmans bike ie Brandy Met Coke, but those who have ridden it say it is ultra responsive and stiff albeit not the lightest  frame .

 

That my dear friend is why most people call it a Bike Met Class

If you dont mind the all American: "we love Lance & all things US Postal" thing, also have a look at the new Trek frames. They came up with a design with some real innovations, it looks like a very, very good frame.
