The Datsun Fairlady 1600 SP311, also known as the SPL311, was a two-door roadster produced by Nissan (then known as Datsun) from 1965 to 1967. This iconic sports car marked the second generation of the Fairlady line, succeeding the original "SP" series. The SP311 built upon the success of its predecessor, introducing a more refined and powerful engine, improved handling, and a wider range of features. Power came from a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine, producing approximately 90 horsepower. While not the most powerful roadster on the market, the SP311 offered a delightful driving experience, thanks to its lightweight construction and responsive engine. The combination of a strong chassis and a revised suspension provided a balanced and fun driving experience, further enhanced by the excellent steering and braking performance.

The Fairlady SP311 truly stood out with its elegant styling, showcasing smooth lines and a distinctive, low-slung profile. The car's sleek design included a low-mounted grille, a flowing hood, and a raked windshield, all contributing to its sporty aesthetics. Its distinctive features were further enhanced by the distinctive chrome accents, wrap-around bumpers and the iconic "Fairlady" script emblazoned on the front grille. The SP311 offered a comfortable interior, featuring bucket seats for the driver and passenger, a well-laid-out dashboard with a comprehensive instrument panel, and adequate storage space. Despite its modest size, the SP311 provided a surprising amount of practicality, making it a viable option for both spirited driving and everyday use. The Fairlady SP311 was a significant milestone in Datsun's history, solidifying the brand's reputation for building reliable and engaging sports cars, paving the way for the iconic Z-car legacy that followed.
