I really want a 7 replica

Birkin is the latest I've come across.

If they weren't so tall I'd go for an L series, so it would have to be 
an R16, maybe a stroker.

In the world of modern engines, how 'bout the 1.8L Miata engine - 
sweet 5 speed gearbox, and huge aftermarket support including 
turbos and superchargers.
