Perhaps, you want inputlist(). It does not provide the item numbers, but it's quite easy to add them manually:
" MyChoice({list} [, {prompt}])
" Lets user choose an item from {list}. Returns the selected item index or -1.
" If {prompt} is omitted the default prompt is used.
function! MyChoice(list, ...)
let l:prompt = a:0 ? a:1 : "Input number:"
let l:idx = inputlist(insert(map(copy(a:list), '(1 + v:key) . ". " . v:val'), l:prompt))
if l:idx >= 1 && l:idx <= len(a:list)
return l:idx - 1
endif
return -1
endfunction
" example usage
let choice = MyChoice(['foo', 'bar', 'baz'])
