airmatic. how do I know?

Am looking at W211 E320 Sports.

Did all of them come with the Airmatic suspension? Is there a digit in the vin that will tell me if it has it or do I just look for the adjustment button below the shifter.

thanks guys.

Look for the adjustment button. 2003/4 E320 sport had Airmatic with the Sport package.
