My 1988 Audi brochure says that the 80 quattro curb weight is 2904 lbs
while the 90 quattro is 2948 lbs.  This is not California-specific but
I don't think any differences in emissions equipment is going to weight
that much.  Also the 90q is pretty much the 80q fully loaded and then
some, so I'd expect an the 90q's curb weight to be the upper limit of
the 80q's.
