The Datsun Sports 1600, officially known as the Datsun SPL311, was a sporty two-door coupe produced by Datsun (now Nissan) from 1964 to 1970. It was the successor to the Datsun Fairlady (SPL210) and offered a significant leap in performance and handling, establishing the Datsun brand as a serious contender in the burgeoning sports car market. The SP311, powered by a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine producing 96 horsepower, was known for its nimble handling, lightweight construction, and sharp styling. The car was available with a 4-speed manual transmission, with a 5-speed manual and 3-speed automatic being added later in its production run. The SP311 offered a thrilling driving experience thanks to its quick acceleration and responsive steering, making it popular with both enthusiasts and everyday drivers.

Despite its sporting intent, the SP311 still maintained a practical side. The two-seater interior offered comfortable seating, and the trunk provided enough cargo space for weekend getaways. Its relatively low purchase price and robust reliability made it a popular choice for both first-time sports car buyers and experienced drivers. The Datsun Sports 1600 proved to be a major success for Datsun, contributing to the company's growing reputation for building affordable and fun-to-drive cars. It is now considered a classic, and sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts for its blend of performance, styling, and affordability. The SP311 helped pave the way for future Datsun sports cars, most notably the iconic 240Z, cementing the brand's place in the history of the sports car world.
