But - go for another test drive before you decide. Put both 6M and 7AT models through their paces, then get the one you like best.
What about when passing on the highway, such as with "2-gear downshifts?" In other words, if I leave the car in drive, and then mash the throttle, does it sluggishly "kick down" one gear, and then another, or is it pretty much a "7-5" downshift?
