There has been a trend in Honda 4cyl/MT setups for a few years, now, to have a bit of engine overrun when the clutch is pushed in (no throttle), presumed to be part of an emissions regulation measure. The V6/MT seems to not have this issue (at least in reviews, I have not driven, nor been able to find, a 6-6... I believe it was motortrends 2008 or so 6-6 accord review that directly stated the V6 didn't get engine rpm float when the throttle was lifted, and the clutch pushed in, vs a Honda 4cyl/MT).
There was a large thread on it on 9thgencivic, there are a few occasional references to it on driveaccord.
However, I'm curious is this new engine, combined with a MT, may have resolved this, yet?
Please reply if you can!
I'm sorry for the poor thought construction. I'm posting this from my phone.

Are you talking about rev hang?

Yes, that's what I'm thinking about.
I didn't do such a good job of putting that in the title, did I? :(

The 2013 Accord K24/6MT doesn't appear to be available yet, so you may have to get the answer from Jeff or another person that has reviewed one.
I have one on order (Accord Sport K24/6MT sedan) and the dealer said it could be 45-90 days. I'm sure there are some people that have ordered before me and will get theirs sooner.
According to Cars.com, there is one K24/6MT in the country at Weymouth Honda, but I checked their website inventory and no 6MT listed. Probably just an error.
I hope there is no/minimal rev hang.
