Question Exhaust Mode Console Button = PE

First post, happy to be here.

If a W213 AMG E63 S has the button on the lower console with the exhaust icon, is that confirmation of a U78 AMG performance exhaust system? I am in the final stages of purchasing, and as I have looked around I have seen some that don't have a U78 code listed on their window sticker, but they do have the exhaust button. For example, I saw a 2018 Edition 1 that just had three options (packages) listed, with the button. None of the packages break down (on the internet) to include the exhaust.

Any help appreciated. My Google Fu is not winning this match.

Regards,
Doc in CA

Yes, if the button below the volume roller wheel has a dual exhaust tip icon, that means it has the performance exhaust option.
