Didnt forget. I said "among others". I just gave a couple of weaker

No, not after 85. I didnt mention quattros as I guessed most people in
here knew that tehy were quattros back then. And the 80 didnt come with
the JS after 85, only the 90 did. After 85 the 5-cylinders were
exclusive to the 90 series.
