go to the car stereo section and read the reviews there. then go to the local stereo shops and play with what they have to offer. don't buy a deck sight unseen.. you'll kick yourself for it later when you hate it because it's f***ed up in the way everything works. (don't ask how I know)

ok.. first of all... don't think you will find too many CD-player that has AT LEAST 200 watt... most of them are at around 120-180 watt... even if it does.. it does NOT put out that much..... it puts out at around15-20 watt per channel.... so if you want more power... AMP is the way to go

the difference between a CD reciever and a CD player I believe is that CD reciever need an aftermarket amp to power it VS CD player doesn't need one..

Personally I hate how Sony's CD player looks... it's FUGLY.... get something Clarion or Kenwood... I had both, and they seems pretty good... I don't like Pioneer... I don't like the design... but like Matt93SE says.. go to the local store and pick one out that you like...
