; General
:
* The Porsche 959 is the first rear-engined car in the Asphalt series that is all-wheel-drive.
; Asphalt 8: Airborne
:
* Similar to the Devel Sixteen Prototype, McLaren P1™, Pagani Zonda R, Ford 2006 GT, Honda Integra Type-R, & some Class S cars (in real speed terms) the Porsche 959's in-game top speed is wrong and does not match with its real-life top speed. In-game, it has a top speed of only 130 mph (210 km/h) at stock despite being able to do 197 mph (317 km/h) in real life.
* The Porsche 959 is the first Championship-unlockable Class D car.
* The Porsche 959 is the only Porsche car with a speed multiplier and the second Class D car with a positive speed multiplier, after the Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2016 Veloce. The 959 has a speed multipler of 100.03%, which was first used by the nanoFlowcell QUANT FE.
* The Porsche 959 is the car with the longest Level 3 nitro efficiency in the entire game, with 10.
** It also has the smallest gap between nitro efficiency levels, with only 2 between each successive nitro level (6/8/10).
* Strangely, the Porsche 959 uses the "BMW M3 GT2 V8" engine note despite being powered by a flat-6 engine.
** This is in stark contrast to the BMW M3 Sedan, which actually uses an inline-6 engine but uses the "F6 Engine" card in-game, most likely due to being introduced before the addition of the i6 Engine card.
* While being assembled, if the Porsche 959 has its "Graphite Metallic" color option selected, the car's color becomes closer to silver than gray.
* Unlike the 911 GT3 RS and the Cayman GT4, which featured two colours that differ from their stock colour for their banner and BP cards. The Porsche 959's stock colour (Fluorescent Orange) is used for its BP card, but its banner colour is Ruby Pearl Metallic.
* Interestingly, a 959 upgraded to 0405 0000 has a rank of 911, and a tune of 0405 0004 gives a 959 rank. That spells the 911 name and this car's name respectively.
