Seller is asking 250. I have been riding a giant fastraod ar 2 for the past year but I want to be faster would this be a good pickup for me? Does anyone know what this bike is called? Seller just said vintage cannondale. Any help would be much appreciated.

It is a Cannondale from the late 90s, possibly early 00s, based on the parts. https://vintagecannondale.com/ has catalogs that could be used for a good match.
For a 30 year old bike it looks like it is in good condition. In a lot of areas 250 is around the floor price of a road bike in ridable condition. You might be able to find a bike a good decade newer around the same price if you wait. It is always worth negotiating the price on used bikes. I would see if they would take 175, and be willing to meet in the low 200s.
Looks a nice bike. Given its apparent condition it’s priced quite reasonable. Retro factor has its charm too.
that’s an OK bike, although it would be good to try to get it for $200. If you want to go faster, find a front wheel with fewer spokes to throw on there.
