In the U.S., starting in 1988, the 80 models had a 4cyl in the fwd
version and the 80Q had the 5cyl.  All 90's had the 5cyl in both the fwd
and quattro, plus an increased trim level, including body colored front
and rear spoiler.  Then in 1991 (don't quote me on this) Audi did away
with the 90 nomenclature and just kept the 80 with different trim
levels.  Can anyone dispute this, or verify this?
