+1, brakes were meant to perform that function. brakes are wear and tear item and replacing those are far cheaper than your engine. and while say these expensive cars are capable of engine braking on a regular basis, the point is why would you want to when you have brakes for that reason. only time i use engine braking is when i go down a steep hill.
