I'm afraid that would be a little bit too easy here!

Looking at the rear side window & roof edge something looks strange, is this a kit or a home built/modified car?

It's not a kit but a professionally modified car..

Wild guess, is it based on a similar car with side-air intakes, is it a modified Ferarri 308 GTB. this has the same kind of roof edges and rear side windows.

Yes, that's exactly what it is!
The giveaway is the upright rear window, which is clearly from a 308 and is a different shape from the Dino's.
It must have cost some money but I suppose now that Dino prices have reached stratospheric levels it must be worth doing if you really must have one...

It looks reasonably convincing; just the windows that are not right..
