That’s why Subaru offering a single-disc CD player as an accessory option for the WRX is so wonderful

You’ll find the $375 CD player buried among the 96 accessories Subaru offers for the WRX on its online configurator. The CD player even looks old school, mounted in the center console underneath the armrest, resulting in one having to feed the disc into the player towards the floor of the car.
