who's your audience? whats the actual subject? there are 1000 different topics to choose, what specifically are you writing about? length? sources?

yeah, I could have a few suggestions. i graduated with a professional writing degree and am a copywriter, so I may be able to help you.

Not to belittle your professor but, is this for a college class? I teach high school and would never assign something like this. Did you get any more guidance than just "write a 5 paragraph essay"?

Three main topics - styling, drivetrain, history?

you could do the history of the Z, thats very easy to find and interesting.

you could get more technical and talk about the driver-centered balance of building that car. that would be easy to take up that amount of text.

you could talk about the enthusiast community, pros and cons, etc., easy as well.

I'll think of some more I'm sure

I think one time in freshman english they let us write an essay about whatever we wanted, just had to be a certain length. Probably just to assess writing ability out of HS.

A document of the drama in FI would be entertaining.

Start with 17 year olds street racing and killing themselves and the others in the car. Figure out some “oppression of minorities” angle. Professors eat that stuff up.

Do a Problem & Solution paper on rear axle click, window grease, rear hatch rattle, and tire feathering.

First Paragraph - Attention grabber, Position Statement, Introduction of ideas
Second Paragraph - Z vs. S2000
Third Paragraph - Z vs. M3
Fourth Paragraph - 2007 Z vs. 2003 Z
Fifth Paragraph - Conclusion, RSX is still faster

Honestly though, could it be a paper proving why a 2-seater sports car is better for you than a sedan? Like a point-by-point comparison/contrast format?
