VBR - Variable Bit Rate, which means that the quality of the file changes during playback. Ultimately this leads to better quality files at the same size, since some parts of the file could be compressed at 128kbs with no difference than at 320kbs.
Ogg Vorbis - Another audio compression format, similar to MP3, but it is not patented so that it is easier, cheaper etc.
I don't know about Ogg Vorbis replacing MP3, it is like the arguement that Linux will replace Windows... MP3 already has the structure and support, Ogg Vorbis doesn't. I wouldn't pay any attention to comments about Ogg Vorbis being the main stream in the near future.
Another problem with Ogg Vorbis, is if it is open sourced, then changes will be made all the time and a standard will be hard to nail down. Stick with MP3 for now, especially for car audio, and definately don't touch any WMA car head units.
If all else fails and you get an MP3 head unit, you can always convert to MP3 before you burn your CD's anyway
