Back when they released the pro series, they told me they had no plans for releasing the sportline for the AC.

I don't believe so. Eibach's official website doesn't list it for our vehicle, so I wouldn't trust it. Plus, I would assume if they did sell em, Stillen would have told us since they sell them and are an active member on these forums...

Looking at their website again, it looks like the Sportline are a higher quality spring and has a lower drop than the Pro-Kit, so it's a shame.

One reason is to gauge interest. Basically they gauge the number of calls they receive to see if it's something that'll be worth producing.

We knew that they didn't actually have the Sportline's that's why we never listed them on our site even though we'd seen them listed.
