"If you were looking for an affordable roadster in the 1960s, the Datsun 2000 may have been your best bet. Known as the Fairlady in the home market, this convertible would match up with the more expensive Triumphs, Fiats, MGs and Alfa Romeos of the era. Just drop the top and start having fun, but for far less of an entry fee. By 1969 the car had reached its peak power of around 135 hp from the two-liter, SOHC, four-cylinder coupled with a five-speed transmission. Speeds of 140 mph could be reached and, with the wind in your hair, that’s plenty fast. By 1970 the 2000 Roadster would be replaced to make way for the first Datsun “Z” cars."—Official description[1]
The 1969 Datsun 2000 Roadster - abbreviated as "Datsun 2000" - is a rear-wheel drive roadster by Datsun.
It appears in Forza Motorsport 6 as part of the eBay Motors Car Pack and as standard in all subsequent Motorsport titles. It also appears in Forza Horizon 3.
Synopsis[]
The 2000 Roadster, sold as the Fairlady 2000 in Japan and Australia, was designed to compete against small British roadsters, but also faced competition in its home market such as the Honda S800. The 2000 Roadster also earned a high number of motorsport victories including 10 SCCA national championship wins between 1967 and 1987.
The 2000 Roadster ceased production in 1969 and was replaced by the Datsun 240Z, also known as the Fairlady Z.[2]
