Ride height man... ride height. Find some pics of an A6 without and then you will know.

you can also run the vin. most people wouldn't have had it removed and it will tell you the model info I believe.

Depending onthe year, the shocks should be red. Also there is sticker in the spare tire well that will say PST or PSK if it is sport.

Someone told me the seats are a good indicator as well. If it has five (5) rolls on the bottom amd higher sides it is the sport.

Or you could look in the trunk at the white sticker where the spare is.
When you look at the suspension code you will either have 1BA, or 1BE
1BA is standard suspension
1BE is sport suspension
