2011 Jeep Compass First Look - Automobile Magazine
Jeep's refreshed compact SUV follows a familiar formula.

A few years ago, Jeep wanted to open the brand up to a wider audience, leading to the introduction of the Compass. Although the small SUV never really captured the hearts or wallets of the general public, it’s getting some updates for 2011 that should help it establish some credibility among Jeep aficionados.

2011 Audi S5 Cabriolet 3.0T
2011 Audi S5 Cabriolet 3.0T - Automobile Magazine
A drop-top for all seasons.

We're now well into the season in Michigan where no one fights for the keys to a convertible. This S5 Cabriolet, however, is a soft-top I wouldn't mind driving through the chilly months. Beyond the obvious advantage of all-wheel drive, the Audi has one of the quietest top-up rides I've ever experienced. Climb in, flip on the seat heaters (not so easy to do with Audi's frustratingly complex HVAC controls) and you'll soon forget the roof isn't made of steel.
