The only thing a center exhaust belongs on is a Corvette or some time of exotic car. SRSLY center exit exhaust on the xB?

It has the potential to look good I think. The Mini's center exhaust doesn't look bad. Different cars but that something in a hatch with a centered exhausted to think about.

As for the flux capacitors, that idea was scrapped in favor of a hyper drive. TRD is getting crazy now-a-days.

Yeap and I still don't like the center exhaust on that vehicle either. Like I mentioned
before it should only be on certain cars (and the xB or the Mini aren't one of them).

Just my own personal opinion

It's no worse than running dual exhaust on a 4 cylinder.

I think in both cases it really comes down to appearance - of the car + exhaust.

For example, I think a dual exhaust on a 2nd gen xB looks great - with the Five Axis lip kit.

For a center exhaust, I'd have to see what else they have planned. If it's a lip kit with a center exit, it could look good (depending on the style of the rear lip), but I personally don't think it would look good on a stock 2nd gen with no matching rear lip.

Minus the S2000 and the TSX, Honda did a good job. The xB2 looks OK
with Duals (the Borla Dual in particular) but I prefer the single dingle

That's true. If that lower lip on the rear Five Axis piece isn't painted black, it looks a little off with a single exhaust.

I agree that the black middle looks better with a single exhaust. However, I plan on getting a dual exhaust. So, I'm having my Five Axis rear lip painted solid red - no black in the middle.

That will look good. I really want to get that kit, too bad I missed out on cash4clunkers.
