Definitely not car audio for sure.
Matter of fact, I have never heard a car system that was as accurate as the studio. Perhaps I'am biased. It could be that I'm an organist too.
One:
The system will sound its best when the car is parked and the engine is off. Kind of makes the car useless. Amplifiers require power and unless your ride has a nuclear power plant, it's hard to run for a while on batteries.
Two:
Bass. This says it all. Bass is so overhyped nowadays it isn't funny. I blame the CD for this. See in the days of the 8 track and cassette, recordings didn't have exaggerated bass because it would use up too much precious headroom. Saturate the media and the sound quality tanks. Of course sound quality was the last thing we had on our minds as we listened to Hendrix' guitar riffing through a pair of Utah 6x9's with dual whizzer cones while driving up to Woodstock.
Records really had the bass too and I know this makes audiophiles cringe, but the CD is more capable and accurate at recording pure sinus tones of quite low denomination. Problem is there are no real instruments in the orchestra that go that low. Except one. The organ. Any organist knows this and knows how bass is supposed to sound.
Of course most modern POP muzak uses samples and these often have synthesised bass. Some of it actually sounds good. I've been a Kraftwerk fan for over 30 years. Of course European bass has a different sound that the newer generation and rapper/housefolk find weak and subdued where they want to engage those nasty bass augmentation "features" found on their snazzy head units with enough pixels to embarass the Goodyear Blimp that runs ads over the Rose Bowl!
Yes it would seem now that everyone has figured out to get more than a few 10's of watts from a car's 12 volt electrical system AND mount a low frequency transducer in an enclosure where excursion is decreased from orders of reflex and other modifications of original designs by Kellog, Rice, Thiel, Small, Colloms, etc.

Amplification:
Car audio systems have too much power. Ok so you just think I'm an old fart. Well the purpose for having power is for dynamic range. To have the dynamic range of a live performance in a car when driving is not possible without destroying the car and killing its occupants! Realistically, to experience a live performance "sound" one needs about 100 dB of dynamic range. If you've ever sat in the pit of the orchestra, you will know what this means. The average car has a highway background noise of 70 dB. That's A weighted dB too! If you revert to a more audiophile friendly C weighting, things become much worse because the background noise will often approach 100 dB! Less for a smooth road and more for a rough road. I don't know how the roads are where you guys live but in the Mid Atlantic region, they're not good!
So we have 100 dB of noise floor. Hmmm that's not looking good. So your 2000W sound system is runs about 106 dB per watt (mostly at low frequencies where it is needed!). This is actually a good figure when everything is quiet. 2kW = 33dBW so the maximum realised SPL is going to be 139dB. Frequency response is hardly flat but this gives an idea. Everyone's RTA is different as is their 1/4 mile! Anyways, 39 dB dynamic range is hardly what I call high quality. Also given the fact that you are coupled to your bass bins in a way that basically sits you inside the speaker-things go downhill fast! Acoustic intermodulation distortion becomes an issue especially in (what else) organ music. It can be heard with Techno as well. Nothing can be done to fix this except reducing the bass levels or adding more treble drivers which makes the sound too bright. Speaking of bright, that's something you rarely hear in car audio unless the perp has a few bazookas in the back and some piezo's up front bouncing off the windscreen in a way that when the windows are open people two blocks away hear the SSSSSSSSSSS in Britany's Mickey Mouse voice that makes the hounds run for cover and puts the railroad guys on high alert for suicide wanderers.
People tend to forget one thing. The immutable laws of physics. The car interior is the most hostile place ever to reproduce a symphony. Granted, there are a lot of creative builders out there that do impressive work, but they all fall short of what can be achieved under ideal conditions met every day in top studios around the world. After all, the purpose of a sound reproduction system is to present to the listener, a reproduction of the original performance with as faithful accuracy as possible.
Too bad most drivers out there fail to realise this and just have a bunch of amps and woofers in their car to show off. It's the equivalent of neffing without an internet,
