The Datsun Sports 2000, officially known as the Datsun SR311 and SRL311, was a sporty two-door coupé produced by Datsun (now Nissan) from 1965 to 1970. This iconic car represented a significant step forward for the Japanese automaker, showcasing their growing technical prowess and ambition in the global automotive market. The Sports 2000 was born from the ashes of the previous Datsun Fairlady, aiming to create a more competitive and refined sports car that could rival European offerings. The result was a compelling blend of lightweight construction, a powerful and smooth overhead camshaft four-cylinder engine (the first production car in Japan to feature this design), and a highly responsive chassis. This combination allowed the Sports 2000 to deliver a thrilling driving experience, marked by nimble handling and impressive performance for its time. Its sleek and stylish design, inspired by the contemporary European sports cars of the era, contributed to its popularity, attracting a loyal following among enthusiasts.

The Datsun Sports 2000 was available in two distinct versions, the SR311 and SRL311. The SR311 featured a 1.6-liter engine with two carburetors, generating 110 horsepower, while the sportier SRL311 boasted a larger 1.8-liter engine, equipped with three SU carburetors and a higher compression ratio, delivering 125 horsepower. These differences provided drivers with a choice for their desired driving experience, offering both a responsive and fun-to-drive experience or a more powerful and exhilarating ride. While the Sports 2000 was primarily a road car, its success on the racetrack further solidified its position as a true sports car. Datsun actively pursued motorsport, achieving impressive results in competitions such as the Japanese Grand Prix and the 12 Hours of Sebring. The Sports 2000's competitive spirit undoubtedly contributed to its status as a cult classic and a highly sought-after model by enthusiasts. Today, the Datsun Sports 2000 remains a symbol of Japan's growing automotive influence and a testament to the company's commitment to building high-quality and exciting sports cars.
