Name this Ross

My father had one just like in this craigslist add when I was a kid. I borrowed it for college and it got destroyed. What is the name of the model?

I had a 'Countach' that I flipped. Mine was black, silver, and green and looks much like the one in the cl ad.
Here are some pics of it:

My best guess is it's an Enhancer. It has the Dia-Compe brakes and levers, steel rat-trap pedals, standard Ross steel and padded vinyl saddle and probably steel rims. I don't think its a Gran Tour, which had a Cro-Moly frame and slightly better components and alloy rims. It's definitely not a Signature bike.
