Technical aspects aside, it's a very weird-looking car (some say a cross between Aston Martin Vulcan and Ford GT) They have only made one at the request of a customer. The design is inspired by 330 P3/P4 and 1966 Dino 206 S.

What's the story behind it? What's it made for? Who is it made by?
To me it looks really cool, and my cfd eyes say it probably performs really well also.

I don't understand the underbody design. The rear diffuser has a forward-facing step just before the upsweep of the exit ramp.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

I think every Tesla fan will find it unattractive, they just see a dinosaur

It's not a step, there's a hole there I just guess you can't see on the CFD. Just like the front diffuser also have two holes for air to exit through.

Perhaps, but note the modeled-in faces are a warmer shade. There were sportscars in the 80s/90s that had expansion regions near the front axle--closed diffusers, whatever you might call them. Can't recall model names or numbers. There's still a venturi effect to be had using this method although with compromises.

I keep thinking it looks like a cross between a DeTomaso Pantera and the modern Ford GT (not the remake of the classic 60s car). It doesn't "feel" Ferrari to me for some reason. That's not to say I don't like it, however.

Its difficult to see on the CAD model, but im very sure there is a slit, so the diffuser acts kind of like a doubble diffuser.

Look at this photo, there you can see the slit bleeding some of the air up and over the rear splitter.

The F1 influence on this car is truly impressive, right down to barely being able to keep up with a German V6.
