Those are not factory. They are aftermarket rear adjustable control arms. You'll benefit from them if you choose to dial in the camber for your rear wheels.
Nice surprises continue to be found on your new ride!
Have you checked your top front strut mounts? - might be that they've been upgraded to adjustable camber plates as well?

Yep they usually just do the bottoms, you got top and bottom adjustable. Those look like M7 Speed https://www.ecstuning.com/b-m7-speed...10-511104~m7s/
