What are some races that smell rather cheesy when one applies the Dragonborn template to them?

So far, the coolest I've come across is Gray Elf + Dragonborn.

Water Orc (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/races/elementalRacialVariants.htm#racesOfWater) + Dragonborn (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/iw/20060105b&page=1) = Str +4, Dex -2, Con +4, Int -2, Wis -2, Cha -2. This probably makes for the beefiest +0 LA melee combatant imaginable, plus if you acquire Mineral Warrior (http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/ex/20031003e) later (preferably bought off (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/races/reducingLevelAdjustments.htm)) you'll further exaggerate those bonuses (and penalties), plus gain natural armor and DR 8/Adamantine. Plus if you went with the Wings aspect and gain Mineral Warrior prior to 6th level, you'll still gain a fly speed and still have your burrow and swim speeds.

Mongrelfolk and Goliath seem some of the best candidates to me.

Orc - since they lose their light sensitivity and nothing else of significance.

Maybe half-orc as well, if only because they don't have any racial features to begin with.

Warforged - you lose composite plating (irrelevant with body armour feat, boon for wizards), still retain your living construct traits.

+1 to Mongrelfolk. Hooray for massive CON bonuses.
