I didn't realize the Berlinetta has a whopping 105 horsepower.

It's amazing how choked up those engines were.

That was the base LG4 though. The top of the line LB9 had 215 hp. Good for 6.8 sec 0-60's and sub 15 sec 1/4 mile times which was actually pretty good for the time period.

When the LG4 had 155 hp (circa 1985), the top engine was the LB9 305 with 215 hp. In '87, the B2L/L98 350 became an option and made 245 hp in the later years. However, the base "155 hp" LG4 was no longer available by then.
