I don't get it. Even if they are, the motor is in the front. WTF

I'll never understand why people do this to poor, innocent little family trucksters.

Doesn't really look like NOS (or should i say NOS bottles) to me, but def a serious WTF...?

I think its something else, but do not understand the back glass roof thing...

Those are ram air hydrogen scoops for this new hydrogen powered car. The roof removal is strictly because everyone knows roofs are heavy, why else would BMW offer carbon fibre there? And those aren't drum brakes, they're micro electric generators similar to F1 Kers.

So really, it's quite a spy shot you captured there.

All of which is respectfully submitted as pure conjecture and offered just to stir the rumour pot, while adding my own WTF in my own inimitable way.

Umm, pretty sure most people put the NOS in the back despite the motor being in the front.

Sure can! Come on down to "Alzilla's WTF Emporium" for all your daily WTF needs!



Actually, I'm pretty sure those are the air cylinders for the car's aftermarket air shocks/hydraulics. I doubt they'd fit in the trunk so the owner took another route.

Most I've seen were in the passenger footwell.

I could be wrong, but I don't think it was glass. I think the whole thing from the A-pillar back was just gone.

I like to drink NOS. I usually mount two of these bottles on my back...
