If I were to a comparison writing paper, I might choose to do it on the Corvette and Porsche 911. Both are widely accepted as benchmark sports cars. Both achieve their goals in completely different manners. One is a front engine RWD, one is a rear engine RWD. One a V8, one a flat 6. They contrast each other so much, yet reach the same basic goal in the end.
Yeah, it's more like Honda Accord vs Toyota Camry/Avalon.

I always liked these kind of classes in college. I wrote a paper for a class on how to choose the right TV. It was fun and easy. One night with me and Word, and it's done. For your paper, try Evo vs WRX.

I think the original post was for "EASIEST" vehicles to compare. Some of everyone's suggestions would be a difficult and long-winded comparison.

Keep it simple:

Ducati 1098 vs. Ducati 999S.

Not now, because there is no Camero but for a while it seemed to be Mustang Vs. Camero.

I wish I had these kinds of topics for an english class. Oh boy, I could do 3-series versus Acura TL/Lexus IS and go on for pages!

"See the problem with buying an Acura is the fact that people will look at you and say 'There goes a man who couldn't afford a 3-series, and thus he had to settle for something value-oriented'. So of course, you'll drive in your TL all day thinking that you really wanted the 3-series, but couldn't afford all the features so you settled for less. And that, is the main problem with the Acura."

As a different approach I would suggest Toyota vs. Lexus


I. History
a. Toyota
b. Lexus

II. Current Global Market
a. On the homefront (Japan) - perceptions, audience, penetration
b. The U.S - same
c. Europe - same

III. Manufacturing
a. Similarities e.g. plants, engineering, components
b. Differences

IV.Conclusion
