Anyone thinking twice purchasing new bikes?

I want a new bike but I’m holding off as want/need are two different things.

I like my current bike but I don’t love the paint job. The other thing is that the frame will only take 25mm tires (maybe 26-27mm max).

I’d really like a modern rim brake bike that will take 28mm tires that measure 30-32mm actual on modern wide rims.

I thought I wanted a Tarmac SL6 but I could never find a color I really liked in the right size and now the SL6 rim brake frame has been discontinued.

Then, of course, I think that maybe I should just go whole hog and get a disc brake frame.

It all leaves me on the fence.
