Thats gonna be a real world time because no one in their right mind is gonna launch their brand new STI at 6000 rpm at every stoplight.
I'd say that time is a lot quicker than any 'real world' time that the car is capable off. IMHO, a 'real world' time will be close to the 5 to 60mph time than they clocked as 99.9% of the time that is how one takes off the lights. With a 'street start' they returned 6.9sec.

Is it typical of boxer engines to get such low gas mileage, how does the regular impreza compare in terms of efficiency?
