Giant TCR 1 Compact?

Took a TCR 1 compact out for a spin the other day and absolutely loved it. I've also been out on an Allez and a Secteur of broadly similar 105-spec, both of which are lovely bikes, but didn't quite do it for me. A couple of questions though:

Does anybody have a 2011 TCR who would provide some feedback as it doesn't seem to get mentioned very often on here?

Any others to consider around the 1000-1100 mark? I'd like to take a CAAD 8 out for a spin, but they're very thin on the ground at the moment. I've also taken a look at the Ribbles and Planet X, but I'm nowhere near either to take a rest ride, which puts me off somewhat. The Cube Attempt is also on the radar, but I've not been able to track one down locally yet.
