Mostly for looks but some of them do reduce noise. I happily would accept the noise penalty to see the engine, reduce the weight and reduce the cost of the car by maybe $20.
Remember the Shogun V6 in the original Taurus SHO? Now that was one sweet looking engine!

Not that this matters, but my dad had one of those SHOs (1989, I believe)- I was only in 8th grade at the time, but I remember thinking how cool the engine looked when he was messing with it. The poor thing was totaled on the Beltway in 1995. Thanks for posting that picture- I had completely forgotten about the neat engine. (That was also one of the most fun cars I've ever driven.)
