There might have been a back-up camera. That connector looks a lot like the ones they have.

hmm i dont think it's a parktronic sensor as you will have multiple sensors across the span of the bumper.
i do recall seeing some kind of box mounted on the inside of the bumper closer to the US driver's side on my wagon. i suspect it's the keyless go antenna. is your car equipped with keyless go?
