Now if only we can confirm what the ducts under the rear doors are for.

If they were really ducts, one could speculate all kinds of plausible explanations. The strange thing is that they are not open so don't collect air for anything. Why have a NACA duct shape designed for low turbulence and drag and then end it in a dead end - maybe future cooling intakes for the real X3M's rear brakes (if it ever materializes).
