That's just so wrong, but so good at the same time

RF900 and Mitsi RVR X3 => People mover thing with Evo2 motor and drivetrain...

Both comfy and big, but with the guts for a good blast as well, sleeper vehicles. I bought both on that basis... ohh yeah, and cheap too!

I owned them in succession.

RGV250 and RX7 - Both blow up on a regular basis
CBR1000RR and Honda S2000 - Both are a shitload better than everyone gives 'em credit for (yes, I've owned / own both)
Goldwing and Rolls Royce - big, comfortable, and terrible at corners.

1999-2002 Yamaha YZF-R6 and Mazda MX5

Both really good out of the box packages. Mid-size power with good handling. Both look really sexy with a few after market bits. Either one well setup will give bigger more powerful opponents a run for their money in the twisties... and if you are a guy that rides/drives one all your mates tell you you are gay.

CB250RS and later MGBGT with the rubber bumpers (note: I think the pic is of an MGBGT V8, but I don't mean that model

).

Low-powered simple low-capacity engine. Not very fast in a straight line, but will corner exceptionally well, despite the age and old design. A bit ugly, with the (rubber bumpers/square headlight+tail), but the (bonnet-line/tank) redeems it. Considered by those with WRXs and Evos to be a bit pointless, but those that have them like them for representing the simple bare basics and essence of (motoring/motorcycling).

GN250 and Toyota Corolla - the basic staple diet of NZ drivers/riders....

and the GPz900R and the Nissan Skyline GTR

they both came out of the factory, kicked everyone's ass, and made the opposition go back to the drawing board...
