I dont have a clue how to tell if my car is
a Base, Active or Sport?
Its a 98, 5 speed, has a sunroof, power windows,
heated "leather" seats.

Just FYI use the search bar before posting cause this topic has been discussed many many times on here.

Do you have stock 15's or 16's on your ti? If you have 16's it's a sport,if your seats are leather/cloth then it's a sport. If you have the m-tech front/rear bumper,side skirts & molding then it's a sport. Sport models do not have Cruise control. If you look at my gallery i have an Active. There are others things also but i'm @ work so i can't list them all at the moment.

I said leather/cloth meaning leather seats with cloth inserts.

Someone needs to come up with a program that determines which model you have. :)

You know.
15" steel wheels Base
16" wheels. OBC, cruise, Active
16" wheels, sport seats, M-technic trim Sport

I forgot. 15" 10 spoke => active
Or is it 5 spoke?

You see, im not sure what wheels the car had. When I bought it
it had 17in M3 stagered fitment wheels and tires on it. There is no
cloth in the interior, its all leather, I have no cruise control, but also
no M-tech insert in my rear bumper.

Then it's a base.
Active would have had cruise. Sport the M-tech trim.
