Default Am I a 2001 or 2001.5?

I think I have a 2001.5 A4 1.8T with the Quattro Celebration, Tip, ESP, and Cold Weather Package. How do I know if it is a 2001.5 or a 2001? It was built in Feb. 2001. It has the little sunvisor over the rearview mirror and metal Audi door sills. Does this make it a 2001.5? Are there other things that are specific to the .5 model? I read somewhere that it has a different front suspension support? Thanks all.

the diff between 2001 and 2001.5 is that they started offering 17" rims with the sport package option. other than that, I think there were no changes. If you have the sports package then you'll know it's a 2001 if you have 16" rims or 2001.5 if you have 17" rims. If you don't have the sports pkg, then there's no difference really, IIRC.
