Or was it an option to get the nice tips?

 

X51 exhaust 'tip' option.

 

My 2002 X50 does not have the quad tips

 

The tips were an option- X54, cost $765

I got the sense that most DEALERS ordered the X50 with X54 (like maybe a PCNA 'suggested' order configuration?) So much so that people thought the tips signify "X50".

Independent options. Oh, as far as I could tell, X54 was also an option for the 2005 'S' versions (that came with X50 as a stock option)

Great info here, I could have sworn I've seen a few non-X50 car's with Quad tips. I think my prior 996TT had this configuration as a mater of fact.

 

Thanks everyone, I thought it might be another $$ option.

Sheesh, $17000. for the X50 package and they charge another $700+ for the tips....

I like the Quads and will have to look around for some. Looks like they are fairly easy to change.

 

Mine's a non X50 package car and has the quad tips. It's X54 as others have mentioned.
