Can't beat instant/resettable trip average fuel consumption feedback for fine-tuning your game.
The coasting issue does sound very strange. Wild guess: maybe the car's feeding in a small amount of power when you lift off the accelerator at speed for smoother transitions? A MPGuino would confirm/bust that lame-brain theory.

A trip odometer would be great, since the car doesn't have one. I hate having to write down the odometer readings between fill ups, so much more convenient to just use a trip meter.
As for the weird deceleration when shifting into neutral, the only thing I can think of is maybe the car shifts out of overdrive for some reason when shifting out of drive. Not sure, it really is odd. I've never had a car that did something like this.
