Recommend a good car cd/mp3 player for around $200 shipped.

I'm going with the Panasonic CQ-DFX983U for around $180 off ebay remanufactured w/ 90day warranty. Can you find a better one? I was originally thinking Pioneer DEH-P850P or 8500 (same thing), but those go for over $300!!! Is there a better one I can buy? I will be hooking this up to my SLK which comes with stock bose amplifier, 2 tweeters, 2 speakers, and 2 subs. (it's a two seater).

doesn't the bose run at different ohms ?
Last I remember those ran at either 2ohms or 6ohms. It was one of those odd ones.
I know I can't add an aftermarket headunit to my car or if I do, I would need to install an aftermarket amp + rewire for the speakers.

 

Id spring another $50 and get eclipse 3413, at a local dealer its $250 installed. Best SQ for the money hands down!
