Folk who want a rare unicorn usually want it OEM but possibly in a different or rare colour combo/spec. Some people do desire this car, it’s sold about 4 times in 18 months, but clearly nobody enjoys driving it.
I know a chap who had Ferraris (355, 456) before moving on to a Silver Shadow and latterly a couple of Astons; he knows little about the technicalities of cars and just buys what he 'likes', and when we were discussing the 355 I asked if he fancied coming to a forthcoming Auto Italia event - he couldn't see the point as he "doesn't do car stuff".
What I mean by 'enthusiast' in respect of the subject car is someone who realises and appreciates the aesthetics of the 3200, and later engineering of a 4200 convertible. I suspect it's being repeatedly flipped by folk who aren't actually that fussed other than to try and make a few quid. There might of course be underlying issues, who knows, but it still presents well and I'm sure it will find a home if/when realistically priced.
