Excuse my ignorance but I have just today bought a 300CE and it has Sportline badges, and gear knob. I have found out that it has a different steering wheel also but I don't really know what a Sportline is. Is it an option pack or an actual model? What does the package consist of?

Sportline was a factory option pack that was a package of springs, bushes, anti-rollbar etc...steering wheel? to make the car handle in a more sporty manner.

Very desirable option, consider yourself fortunate.

It was a factory option with stiffer suspension thicker antiroll bars and also a different steering box. Makes them a little nicer to drive at speed
