Not really. They are just (obviously) more consistent. The gearing in the 7AT has an advantage in its first two gears but after that, there's no real advantage to the 7AT. Another neat feature is the fact that the torque converter is always locked on the 7AT.

...ofcourse, the 7AT really closed the gap that the 6MT had on the 5AT. But I would still bet that a properly driven 6MT can take the 7AT around any road course.
