Except there is no DCT offered in the Mustang (though you can get one in the Focus and Fiesta - go figure). I haven't seen any information that the 6 speed auto is faster than the manual in the Mustang either. Unless the manual is faster, they tested the two fastest models of the cars available. That seems fair to me, and not cherry picked.

I would also point out that the DCT is only worth 0.2 seconds according to BMW.
