How can I tell if it's a Modern Luxury and Sport model?

He sent me some pics of the headlights and they have some hazing and the engine bay isn't as clean as I could keep it. You're a detail kinda guy right? You would keep it clean no?

I haven't gone to check it. Too dam hot today and last night haha.

Modern Luxury has NAV, back up cam, Mark Levinson stereo, Smart Key, parking sensors, etc. Sport is an option. Look for the badges on the fenders. Yeah, on my car, headlights are clear and engine is clean

Yeah hazed headlights don't cut it for me. Ask him for any service records he's got. You have the one entry about the transmission. Anything else? Dealer might be CA (Pleasanton). Dealer records will tell you where the car sold originally.
