Yours is the situation we were at in late 2006. The decision had been made to get a RV. The research had been done. Over 2 years had been spent lurking here on RV.net. We had it down to only 4 or 5 models of 5ers. Had to be one of them. The first was going to be the last. Further it was going to be no more than a few years old.
It was a question of scouring the internet daily looking for one of those 4 models to pop up. None of them were common production models. We were prepared to travel for the right one, & we did. It took a full day & 3 flights to get to where it was. Bought it, put it in storage for 6 months then flew back to pick it up for a 2 month shakedown/delivery trip to where it would be based.
10 years & over 150,000 miles later, no regrets. Have not seen anything we like better.
Do the research. Buying mistakes is expensive.
