Find out if I do indeed have sport suspension
Anyone know how I can find out if I do need have the sport suspension without contacting the dealer and running the vin?
Like the ride height in inches or maybe a marking somewhere? I bought my car used and it supposedly has the "sport package" but I want to make sure

One thing that has been consistently different between the sport and luxury trims across the model years are the side skirts. The side skirts are flared out for an aggressive stance on the sport trim.

Use a vin decoder like this one. Should say sports suspension if you have it.

Wow well it turns out after all these years I do have a "sport package" but the vin decoder shows the springs themselves as luxury/avantguard so that part of the ports package must have been special ordered by the previous owner
i thought my ride was considerably softer than the loaner cars my dealer has been letting me use
bummer

Here's the car's brochure: https://static.beepi.com/Brochures/55849.pdf
For example, if you don't have the lane assist package, but have the 3-spoke steering wheel, you have the sports trim.
