Ok any Datsun snobery is just plan silly arsed. I've competed in the 1200 , B210 , 510 and 240 and they are all fun but I like the lightwight 1200 best ( Remember I was a 125cc bike road racer so I like tiny racers).
First off let's review what Datsuns were - they were el cheapo econo box disposable Japanese cars. Even the 240Z was a "bargain" sports car.
Now of course motor heads all over the world quickly discovered that the were ultra reliable and extremely rugged cars that could be hotted up at bargain prices. The result was a car that won championships on the race track and still cost less than the "pedigree" sports cars of the day. I built my whole 1200 for what some of my freinds paid for pistons for their cars plus mine is more fun to own.
So Datsuns are cars for people more concerned with fun and performance than image. So needless to say anyone who owns a particular model of Datsun and is a snob about it is just plain laughable. My recommendation to these snobs would be by a Porsche , Ferrari or Jag.
