This engine has a common throw crank for opposed cylinders, meaning the pistons across from each other move in the SAME direction, whereas a boxer moves in exactly opposite directions. A Ferrari flat 12 is another example of a non boxer flat engine. 

That is funny since they called one version (512BB) a Berlinetta Boxer themselves!
