Default Do I have Sport Suspension or not?

I bought this car about a year and a half ago from Agincourt Autohaus (Audi Dealer) and was told that this car came with the sports package...but the more I look at others with OEM sports suspension...the more I feel like i'm on 4x4 suspension.

1) does sport package include sports suspension?

2) i've included some pics...i took it at night in a garage so please forgive the poor lighting...but that is my car and I wanted to know if these were sports or non-sports

I looks a bit too high for sports suspension.

Sports package does include the suspension and I agree with Alex - too much gap for an OEM sports suspension. Is your steering wheel a 3 or 4 spoke ?

It does look a little high, but the easiest way to tell is if your springs are red or black, if they are red you have sport suspension

Check the option codes listed on the sticker in the front of your owners manual. 1BE is the code for factory sports suspension.
If you want to check all your option codes you can use this web site: PlanetVAG.com - VW & Audi PR Code Search

That does look high. I bought mine used and someone had actually replaced the fronts with standard while leaving the back's with sport. Check the shocks - if they are red they are the sport model
