Yes, watermelons, because this has been so blown out of proportion.

i know you sell cars so you would understand this question.

that navigation comes from same list as the rest of the options… or what you call accessories.

so why is a gps a option but a subaru performance exhaust a accessory? i think the carbon fiber add ons is a option too. but you think its a accessory?

if i add up the cool options/accessories subaru offers with the wrx you get over $37k think of intrest and tax then you have a $40k wrx if you choose all the options
