If it has aluminum instead of the wood on the center console then it's likely a coach edition not sport
I have a Coach & it has wood on the center console - no aluminum here...

I really like that! I love the door sill plates! I want it!

Or perhaps was it a Canadian model. From what I knew, U.S. had "Silversport" that included black perforated leather (etc.), but I never saw "Sport" offered here (at least in CA). There were aftermarket door jamb mouldings available, though.

It's too bad they didn't offer one with a tighter handling suspension. Silversport was supposed to but apparently can't find a reference to Silversport anti-sway, bushings, or struts even tho it was supposed to be "sport-tuned suspension"... Yeah, right.

Anyone else know how to find "sport-tuned suspension" pieces?

I think you maybe right, the "Sport Edition" was introduced in Canada in 2001 (to 2003) in only few colours. I have not seen any "Silverport" here in Canada. The silver trim has a brushed look , matt finish and after 10yrs still looks sharp .
