It's the transmission type..

6MT = 6 Gear Manual Transmission

7AT = 7 Gear Automatic 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.

Now you know what they mean so there will be no excuse when you pick a 7AT
