The best you'll be able to do with Cisco is the Catalyst 2820, which lists for about $8,600. Coincidentally, I've got one on order now - in lieu of buying a pricier (and somewhat wasteful of a chassis) Cat4k or Cat5k, I opted for using the backplane on the switch to interconnect FE and FDDI uplink boards. The basic part numbers you'll need are: WS-C2828-EN, WS-X2818, and WS-X2842, along with any maintenance you might wish to purchase along with it.
