for starters the seats are quite different, they look like 16v seats. The shifter says sportline on the top, and on the side panels right behind the front wheel well it should say sportline. Hope that helped, head over to 190revolution.net, they might have a better idea.

The Sportlines did not have any engine upgrades, but were primarily the 2.6L six cylinder. In addition to the badges and sport seating, the Sportlines had a slightly lowered suspension, like the 2.3-16, about a half inch lowered with different springs, struts and shocks. The only other change was a lower ratio steering box and a slightly smaller sport steering wheel.
