More than the mint Paramount with full Dura Ace?
No STI levers -- downtube shifters.
I just picked this bike up - it also has the original drop bars.
Here's a pic - I'll take more tonight. I believe it is a 1991/1992 model.

I haven't followed the price of these closely but they do seem to sell for big money when they're hyper-clean, from what I have noticed. $600-1000 range is what I've seen, again though, only in passing.
Thank you --
That's what I've seen, too, mostly.
This one has essentially never been ridden - it's crazy clean.

On ebay, I think it may be a tie. Given the alleged condition, maybe more.

That frame alone could potentially sell for $600. Though, I believe the '94 may be the most coveted year, as it could fit 32mm tires.
