Utterly mental - was that an official model? Why make a 4wd lightweight?

Yes it was. But ultra rare and hand made at Weissach. 20 made I think.

Many other delightful Pork offerings to be had for a lot lot less.

Very rare (22 built), lightweight with 265bhp. Video comparing 964 Carrera 4 Leichtbau with the 964 RS

To put that into context, for the same price you could have....

A Carrera GT

AND

A 991 GT3 RS

AND

A Cayman GT4

Bonkers price!

With 22 of these made it's pretty unique. A buyer will probably be a serious Porsche collector who probably has the above, which are all readily available by comparison.

The price of exclusivity (advert said 20 made) and delivery mileage (which makes it undriveable as an investment).

Just an odd variant, and as others have said why not buy a 964RS plus a CGT and a heap of change.

Mega rich won't care of course

I think that's the point of it - you could have those cars above, but if you don't buy the super rare 964 on delivery miles now, could you ever have one in the future? Presumably the collector that gets this will already have the cars listed above, or at least the opportunity to get them in the future.
