I have a Fuji Altamira 3.0 from 2012. Fuji has interesting geometry to say the least. After a significant back injury, it was the only thing that really felt right. I do use it to commute to work when the weather is mild and my back is up to it. I'm not sure which is more fun on a hard ride, my car or my bike.
I've heard you can find some really nice full-carbon set ups with decent hardware on CL for around your price range, but I've never visisted the site and I would never buy a bike like mine second hand unless I knew the person selling it. I know I'm the minority here, but travelling at 50 mph, weighing twenty times what is underneath me while I'm clipped in makes me nervous unless the thing has never been ridden hard by anyone other than myself.
I've also owned three Cannondale bikes that I liked a ton and I wouldnt' hesitate to recommend their brand, but I absolutely love my Fuji. They're even still around brand new in retail for roughly half what I paid for it, but like I said, they have interesting geometry and many people feel pretty awkward on them.
Get what fits/feels the best. No one can offer you better advice.
