Do you guys feel a "rubberband effect" when coasting to a stop? Hard to explain in technical terms but the car just doesn't seem to cruise smoothly. The car seems to engine brake very noticeably hard when the 7AT is downshifting(in D mode.)

Don't know if this is a sportscar thing(although my last car was a 00 Z28) but it's getting on my nerves in bumper to bumper traffic.
