W210 Sport vs non Sport?

Hi all, Back after a layoff having sold my last fun extra MB an '04 CLK55AMG. Now looking for an '00 to '02 E430, had an '00 E430 Sport which was probably the best highway cruiser ever, now I miss it. My question is other than the AMG aero skirts, sometimes wheels, are there any other Sport upgrades i.e. springs, anti sway bars, etc? I ask as my '00 had upgraded 18" staggered monoblocks which were original to the car.

H&R still makes springs and sway bars:

Low buck upgrade is to replace your stock rubber springs bushings with thinner ones. Maybe "sport" springs can still be had?

Hi, Thanks for the input was considering going that way for my next one. On my 2000 E430 Sport I added AMG calipers and discs to the front and it was a noticeable upgrade.

C43 AMG with a tune up
Sports package does it say SPORT on fender trim or does it say Avantgarde?
Avantgarde is the best and nicest package
