Default 2017 Exhaust Difference

I have been looking at 2017 SQ5's and have noticed that some have the fake exhaust plastic honeycomb at the rear and some occasional one's have the chrome 4 tips out the back. Is there any difference in these outside one is a hidden downpipe and the other just comes straight out the back? I will include a picture for reference, sorry about quality I just screenshot it.

The supercharged B8.5's have the real quad-exhaust. The B9's are fake.

That explains it... I just bought this one. We have to drive 12 hrs to get it, but got a decent price and has a lot that we wanted ie color, interior, options. It's a 2017 SQ5 with 32k miles on it.

It is only the Premium Plus... I found in north of Atlanta. It is really clean inside and out, has the black and silver diamond leather pattern and it seems that all the normal maintenance was performed usually just ahead of schedule at a Audi dealer. So I hope it doesn't have any major issues. I've been finding mostly 16's or 17's with double the mileage and this one came up so I jumped on it day one. I don't really want to drive to get it but I am doing a trade in and didn't want to pay both ways for shipping, so 12 hour each way drive it is. Luckily we drive a lot for work so it won't be such a bid deal.
