neither did I; I think it looks foul

It could be custom made, because if you build a porsche on their website, it says:

More than 20 years ago, Porsche took the notion of individuality and created a unique and totally unprecedented customization program: Porsche Exclusive.

Ever since, Porsche Exclusive has provided Porsche customers with the very highest standards of personalization, turning one of the world's most desirable sports cars into one that's also totally unique. A deeper interpretation of the ideals of quality and individuality that have inspired generations of Porsche drivers.

Over the years, Porsche Exclusive has steadily evolved with the needs and expectations of our customers. Today, the key areas of exterior styling, aerodynamics and engine performance are complemented by a truly exceptional level of interior refinement.

To create a driving experience that's as unique as the driver.

I've heard of Porsche Exclusive. Maybe that 959 was ordered that way?

Or possibly its a kit car. It doesn't look much like a real 959.

It looks like someone wanted something along the lines of a 550... very cool. I'm glad there's only one like it, but it's definitely original in a good way.

im pretty sure that this is an aftermarket custom job...either a real 959 with the top chopped off or, more likely, a non-959 made to look like one...it just doesnt look right to me

as for Porsche Exclusive...i think that all they do are little things like custom wheels and custom interior trim

The wheels don't fit the arches, half the shutlines are missing, the bonnet is the wrong shape, the bonnet vent is missing, the side vent is the wrong shape, the headlights are wrong, and the bodyshell appears to be an approximation of the 959 rather than a copy - that isn't a 959.

if you look closely that is not a real 959. a real 959 have center lock wheels, this one have wheels with five lug nuts.

Well then, I guess it's just a modern-day 550 using the 959 as an inspiration :D

im pretty sure its either a 964 speedster with some 959-esque bits, or a 993 cabrio with 993 bits

Porsche Exclusive will do more than that. They'll custom build a car to your specifications. Engine, tranny, suspension, body, color, interior you name it. But it's gonna cost ya though.
