A comment in the help-with-the-ideal-3-vehicle-fleet got me thinking about something.. could you build a 3 car 213 garage?
You could fill a garage with a -
1) A Ford P71 for Rally, Long Distance Driving, Drifting and other Body on Frame RWD shenanigans.
2) A Chevrolet Silverado Z71 for Towing, adventuring, A camper, and Off Road mayhem. Honorable mention for the Colorado Z71's.
3) A ???????71 sports car
And yes I realize you all will argue that the P71 is already a sports car or can be turned into one but lets ignore that possibility. What sports car would fit the '71' code?
It can ideally have a project code that ends in 71 like the P71. It can be marketed as something with 71 in it (718 spyder/cayman perhaps but that is 7-18 not 71-8?). I suppose worst case it can be a car from 1971 (240Z of some kind probably winner here).
So what would you include?
R171 SLK is what I found from some googling
Apparently if you convert "7D1" from hexadecimal to decimal you get 2001.
Soooo, 2001 Miata?
How about something with an 8-71 supercharger?

Why not add one to all 3 vehicles?
AE71 Toyota Corolla?? Preferably like Oldeskewltoy's with a healthy 4A-GE and a six-speed manual. Perhaps not the quintessential sports car, but if a P71 can be argued to be a sports car...
For those of us that are a bit clueless what is a 213 garage?

71x3=213, so 3 cars with 71 in the name add up to a 213 garage.

Yeah you got it. It's nothing important. I just had this idea and thought it would be an intriguing title. Also I'm glad my math was right. How embarasing it would of been if I got it wrong..
These are good suggestions. I like the idea of a heavily modified Corolla or the Motorcycle. That thing looks hilariously fun. Though I also like Robbie's Lotus 7S1 as that would be a fun car and alot like the motorcycle in many ways.
1 fiat x1/9
If you replace the letters with their numerical position in the alphabet and add them all together you get 71.
1+6+9+1+20+24+1+9=71
