You have pictures of 2 different cars.

The one in the parking garage didn't have badges, had black brakes, and had a sunroof. The one you found on the road had badges, had red brakes, and had no sunroof.
The wheels are different as well.

Can't tell in any of the pics if they are M6 or A8, so I'll take your word for it.

This leads me to believe you're in on it. Spill the beans. :ROFLMAO:

FWIW - I'm pretty certain that those plugs in the back are for data and not power... If they were power, they would be FAR MORE protected... way too easy to kill yourself if those are hot.

Also, they were found on the first Hellcat mules as well, and there was NO WAY they were doing EV testing back then ;)

I don't understand why they didn't head south. We're 110 today, even when it was overcast. Put the cooling system to the test.

Yeah, definitely didn't sound like an EV.

I have no idea what those things are sticking out back. I've been trying to search the ol' webz for info and am coming up with nada.

I know that Automotive Testing and Development Services, Inc. (maybe not the company you saw) does extensive emissions (and other) testing. Including pull behind trailers with full exhaust capture as well as mount on car (by a sort of trailer hitch mount) full capture units. Maybe that is a full capture unit? But seems unlikely - way better methods to provide power than raw terminals. That's a stumper.

That setup looks home made with something like 5/8 hard lines and -10 Male AN fittings brazed on with plastic dust caps.
