I decoded VIN but it shows no hint to the suspension type.

Since no suspension option is listed it has standard suspension.

Something like Sport suspension would show up on the option list.

When I decoded, it doesn't seem to indicate any special/optional suspension (such as sport or variable dampers). So, I'd assume that probably means it's the standard suspension. Looks to be a European (Russian, specifically) spec'd car... some nice options but no indication of special suspension.

What he said. Only performance oriented option is stand alone Sport auto transmission w/paddles. Does have style 366 wheels which are 6 series v-spoke here. Nice wheels
