Just curious. Does the M5 have a true dual exhaust?

I'm surprised no one here has answered this. I'll post on the M5 Forum.

Lol, probably because it's obvious enough.

Yeah, Car Nutz isn't too familiar with the e60. They told me the same thing when I went to get my quad tips from them. I know this doesn't show the entire rear section, but this is what my shop did, and they had no problem working between the battery and spare tire well:

Quite honestly the Eisenmann dual looks like ass. Even the fake muffler on the right side doesn't even match the real muffler on the left.

You know you can just go to an awesome shop like AAA Muffler (in LA) and get a true custom dual set-up like I did.

Apparently not as straightforward as you make it seem:
