Default How to tell if my B5 is a sport?

I've been trying to figure this one out since i bought it, but i cant seem to find much info. My car has the sport emblem in teh steering wheel, but someone told me that the sports didnt have the chrome window trim like mine does. How would i be able to tell if it is a sport or just a plain one with a sport steering wheel?

The chrome trim only means you have a 2.8

If you look at your shocks and they're red, you have a sport. If they're black you have a non-sport.

Because that's the way it is. The seats, wheels, and steering wheel can get purchased independently of the "sport package." Or maybe your shocks are dirty.

i guess you gotta jack the car up to see shocks...out of curiousity i just checked my car and i saw i have black springs..but couldnt see in that well to see the shocks....

i have the sport steering wheel, the 16" wheels, and i believe the sport seats....im guessing i have sport package but i'd like to know for sure
