I guess fake is an exaggeration, but it is certainly pretentious and not function driven. Those pipes are coming from straight 6 diesel. There is no justification for 2 cylinders per muffler. I think it is only justified in a W12 engine. Perhaps I am bothered by the odd number and their prominent feature.
