    Yeah, take a peek under the front to ensure there is a diff diff there. Don't go by just the dial on the dash.

    Looks like a regular SR5 with the previous owner adding the TRD Sport sticker. The TRD Sport should have color matched grill, rear bumper, and side mirrors. It should also come with a 30mm sway bar, 17in rims, and a hood scoop.

    Where it has lived, the frame is probably good.

    But, do yourself a favor, look underneath and inspect for heavy rust. Also, fluid flim your frame, weather you think you need it or not...

    You are welcome for this unsolicited advice. LoL

    YMMV, but if it was me I would politely and without any attitude tell them that it's unlikely it's a Sport and why. If it was my dealership, I would want to know. Their response will tell you a lot about the place.

    I have seen many sports and almost all of them don't come with tinted headlights. I think you are confusing the TRD Pro headlights with sport.
