Not seen any mules/test X3's with the twin pipes....one left/one right setup.Only the "European" style twin pipes on the left side of the car as you face it from the rear.The one oval pipe on the left side of the car is a diesel.My guess is that the twin pipes on the left side will continue into the production model and continue the same setup as the current X3.Thanks.
