It's the transmission type..

6MT = 6 Gear Manual Transmission

7AT = 7 Gear Automatic Transmission

So you have a driver's license but don't know the difference between an Automatic Transmission and a Manual Transmission?

Awwww. Give him/her a break. It was the nomenclature that confused the OP, not the difference between auto and manual (at least that's how I read it). The argot of this (and most other car-related) site can be confusing for even old car buffs. And I can see how searching for a three-letter term could be a nightmare.

LOL, I agree, like M6 370Z, that's a new model... Hmmmmm...


And this thread should be closed now since the OP's question has been answered.


But OP, 7AT FTW, go test rape both, you'll see...
