dirt of some kind?
water spots?
tough to tell from that picture. What type of wax did you use?

man that sucks. it looks like your car got stuck behind a gravel truck!
its odd you dont know what is causing it. my brothers beemer has hard water corrosion spots on it pretty bad and it looks like someone just let water dry on it. lots of little water rings.

matt: try using a clay bar on a small portion sectoin of it.
It WILL remove the wax but maybe it'll help with the spots.

It also looks like it might be paint over-spray. Whatever it is, the clay should remove the spots. You could also try a mild polishing compound on a microfiber cloth and try to rub it out. If not you might need to get someone to buff it.
