what month in 2000 was it built? that will tell what year model it is. 98-01 is one body style, considered passat old. 01-up is new style. frame rails are the same, upper apron along the rails where the fenders bolt up are different. it should have a vin break-- like through VIN 049999 and from VIN 050000. other than that, then you have w/ or w/o sport option–which is spring rate difference, and then you have sedan or wagon…
seein you have a build date in 00, but titled as an 01, should be an early 01 or through vin 049999
I didn’t think there was a difference between B5-B5.5 besides motor size/type and springs depending on that, forgot about sport suspension. Then B6 '04+ is different for sure.
