That's because DFCO only works above 1100 rpm, or around there. Once you get below that rpm, it starts putting gas and spark back to the engine so it wouldn't stall. Obviously it would be a marketing horror to try and sell a car that stalls every time you take your foot off the gas. My Mazdaspeed 3 also has DFCO and I can never feel any difference when it goes on or off.

Well the surgeing, exploding final drives, wacko servo braking motors, and QC issues in general (and $15,000 plus price tags) put me off one of those. I thought I could sneak in an F650 and get away with it. I was wrong!

I bought a used one of those (R11GS 1996) with 83k miles on it a few years ago. It was SLOW and top heavy. It cost the PO $5000 in (non warranty) repairs. To think I would have sold my soul for one of them when they came out! Just had to get that outta my system!
