What kind of X5 do I have ?

I don't know if mine is a sport x5 or a regular one. It's a 01 X5 4.4i do I have a sport or just a utility ? How can I tell? Might be a dumb question but I'm curious

You can decode your VIN here. Would say if it had the Sport Package or not.

Tri- spoke steering wheel and front sport seats with adjustable length bottom bolsters usually means sport package.

Only true way to determine how the car left the factory.

Nope trim can be plastic dipped or replaced.

Nope steering wheel can be replaced with a sport wheel. Some sport X came with non sport seats.

Another few ways to tell do you have clear corners instead of yellow on the tail lights. factory sport comes with larger rims.
