Sorry to break up the newb love fest but MOST stock stereos can handle cd-r's
As far as the OEM option mp3 player, it does not show track titles or folder names. Basically it acts like a cd-changer. For example, if you put 10 albums all in their own folders, folder 1 is the root of the cd and is treated like disc 1, if there is no files in the root of the cd it goes to the first sub-folder which is disc 2 etc.
You know i was kinda pissed at first about it not displaying the id-3 tags etc, but now that I have a pioneer HU in my other car that does, I really dont mind.

Every car stereo I have had hasnt had a problem with either.
My question then is these days why would you use CD-RW's? They cost 5x as much as their cheapest cd-r counterpart, so you would have to re-write 5 times just to make up the cost diff.

It is pretty cool that it reads CD-RW. I have at least 10 CD-RW's laying around, so it will be neat to not waste CD-R's to make a playlist....
