Default Exhaust Question (noob)

i got a is250 2 months ago and I'm looking to buy a exhaust. the exhaust i want says it only fits rwd is250s and i have awd.. is it true that a exhaust can only fit a rwd because that sounds a little odd to me.

If its a full catback, then the exhaust will most likely only fit RWD and not AWD vehicles because of minor differences in the midpipe. If its an axleback then its interchangeable between AWD/RWD

axlebacks = fit all
catbacks/midpipes = rwd only
