If he based this part of the review on "feel" and not numbers, then I'd say it still would have been advantage Mustang.
I'm willing to bet the reason why there weren't instrumented results is because they don't have access to full on testing kits or closed tracks where they can run performance evaluations (like I think MT does in SoCal) in fully controlled conditions.

Just a stab at that.
