Speed. And vanity. A smart business man would buy a PC-12 or a King Air if he really needed... IMO.

Cessna Mustang vs King Air C90GTx

1,150nm vs 1,236nm - Range (Full fuel, max takeoff weight)
41,000' vs 30,000' - Max altitude
340KTAS vs 272KTAS - Max cruise
1,165lb vs 2,143lb - Max payload
2,580lb vs 2,573lb - Usable fuel
5 vs 8 - Pilot and pax

Both around $3.5 million. The C90GTx looks like it's a bit more expensive, depending on configuration, but you get way more bang for your buck with the King Air.
