How do I know if my car has the sport Package?

I am in the process of buying an 02 I35. The dealership I am buying it from labeled it as a sport package, which looks true. It has the rear spoiler and the different rims that come with the sport package but on the test drive I became a little suspicious. I turned TCS off and floored it and it immediatly started squeling a ton. From what I have read the sport package has an LSD, and VCD. AND VLCD or something like that. now if this car has an LSD I have a hard time believing it would smoke the tires like that if it were turning both of them. I couldent tell if one was squeling or 2 because once I nailed it from a stop and it didnt move an inch I knew it was just gonna keep peeling and I didnt want to destroy the guys tires. ANyway I heard that there is a vcd switch where traction control is on the regular models. I didnt see a VDC switch and I heard that the steering wheel and shift **** in the sport package are all leather where as in the base models they have wood on the steering wheel and shift ****. SO my question is what does the sport package include and how do I know if this car really has the full sport package or not?
