Re: New Consumer Reports: FJ got a PERFECT score

Is it different than this Consumer Report review (this is just a snapshot of the article)? Because this one is not very good - they give it a 36 out of 100 stating:

"The FJ's styling echoes the rugged early FJ40 Land Cruisers. While its off-road prowess is superb, the FJ is full of compromises. Visibility is horrendous, and the rear-hinged rear doors provide poor cabin access and are difficult to close. The FJ has clumsy handling and can be disconcerting at its limits, although the standard stability control keeps it secure enough. The ride is compliant but jiggly. The V6 powertrain is smooth and punchy, and reliability has been top-notch in its first year. Crash-test results are very good. However, the FJ scores too low in our testing to be recommended."
