The Ferrari 412 GT Automatic belongs to the last generation of Ferrari’s classic front-engine, rear-wheel-drive twelve-cylinder coupes. The model builds on the 365 GT4 2+2, the 400, and the subsequent 400i, with the 412 introduced in 1985 as a further evolution. The Ferrari 412 GT Automatic was the top model in this line at the time and marks the end of a tradition in which Ferrari combined luxury grand tourers with a front-mounted V12.
The Ferrari 412 was produced in limited numbers and is therefore considered a rare sight within the Ferrari lineup of the 1980s. The model came equipped with an automatic transmission, a choice that aligned with the car’s role as a comfortable touring car rather than a pure sports car. As a result, the Ferrari 412 GT Automatic carved out its own niche among the more performance-oriented Ferrari models of the same period.
This 1987 example has a Dutch registration number, originally delivered by Ferrari dealer Kroymans and serviced exclusively by them ever since. It has a clear Dutch provenance and a complete maintenance history within a single dealer organization. The car features a rare and refined color combination, with a black exterior and a luxurious interior.
Technically, the Ferrari 412 GT Automatic stands out for its classic Ferrari layout, featuring a front-mounted twelve-cylinder engine and automatic transmission. It combines comfort and ease of use with the brand’s typical V12 architecture. The body style reflects Pininfarina’s understated design, used for the 400 series and the 412, aimed for a more business-like, long-distance-oriented appearance.
This particular example features climate control and a rearview camera, amenities befitting a luxury grand tourer. The car is finished in black with a matching luxurious interior, emphasizing its formal design. The 412 GT is increasingly rare and remains a distinctive presence among the later classic Ferraris with front-mounted twelve-cylinder engines.
According to available information, the car is in mint condition. Both the exterior and interior are in impeccable condition. The 1987 Ferrari 412 GT Automatic is presented as a well-maintained example with a finish befitting its status as a late and exclusive model from the classic Ferrari era.
The 1987 Ferrari 412 GT Automatic is a rare Ferrari, delivered and maintained in the Netherlands, with a clear place among the brand’s final generation of classic front-engine V12 grand tourers. The combination of provenance, color scheme, equipment, and specifications makes this a distinctive example within the Ferrari 412 series.
