Not only that but coasting out of gear is illegal and can be dangerous. The car is much more likely to stall. (no power steering or brakes) Especially if you have to use the brakes which are powered by engine vacuum. Panic stops are not good when coasting in neutral because the sudden drop in manifold vacuum will probably stall the engine!
You can't stall the engine while coasting. It can stall if you are in 5th gear and going at 5mph, you can't stall it in neutral, with or w/out the clutch depress.
