F13 640i not as quick as advertised?

Hey guys. I bought a brand new 2012 640i coupe back in November and so far I've been very impressed with the car. The only thing I don't get is why the car isn't matching its advertised 0-100kph time. I've done quite a few runs in sport mode and here's what i got,

1st try: 6.05
2nd try: 6.13
3rd try: 5.95

Why is it unable to do 0-100 (0-60mph) in 5.4 seconds?
Is it because it was in sport mode and not sport +, or because I let it shift automatically instead of shifting at 5800 rpm?

Here's a video of me accelerating to about 250kph. Please let me know if the car is faster this way (in D) or if I shift it manually using the paddle shifters. Thanks!
