Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS

The Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS reaches 60 mph in 5.64 s (100 km/h in 5.95 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.14 s, tripping the lights at 97.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.03 s and the eighth mile in 9.03 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS

The 2000 Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged car of 1,545 kg with 261 bhp, which works out at 169 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.03 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 2,841st quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 29th quickest of the 119 Subarus here. Its 97.5 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS 0-60 time?
The Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS reaches 60 mph in 5.64 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 2,841st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS quarter mile time?
14.14 s at 97.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.03 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.03 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS have?
261 bhp and 1,545 kg, which is 169 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 244 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS?
Closest here on pace: Skoda Octavia Combi RS 245 Mk III facelift (5.67 s), Audi TT Quattro Sport Mk I (5.59 s), Hyundai i20 N BC3 (5.66 s). Each one can be raced against the Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB 265 PS is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
