If you look you should be able to find one of these close to the $1K mark. Since Kimber went back to the tried and true internal extractor, I have read great things. Mine was an external extractor slide gun (I have the Ultra CDP II) and I called them when it was FTF'ing every once in a while, which for a carry gun isn't a good thing. Their customer service was excellent, and they replaced the entire slide overnight at no cost.
Here is the Custom CDP II.
