T-bird Sports have the Turbo Coupe's heavy duty springs, quick ratio steering rack, quad shocks, TC sway bars, and a floor shifter.

Mine came with buttstuffog gauges,TC sway bars,TL rear with 2.73 gears (traded out for an 8.8),no light group package option,but it does have the floor shifter and really nice bucket seats with power lumbar,adjustable bolsters,and pull out knee supports.Oh,it came with quad shocks as well.Build yours up.

The surest way to tell a Sport is the VIN. If it starts out 1FABP60 it's a regular T-Bird. 1FABP61 is a Sport. 1FABP62 is an LX, and 1FABP64 is a Turbo Coupe.
