Horn or bandpass?

I am gathering advice from people often about bass in cars. Looking at all types of cabinets: horns, bandpass, isobaric, etc. One question I have is how does a basshorn work in a small car? I understand the horn works by matching the radiation impedance. In a car impedance is very different than outside. It is a pressure zone like a sealed box. Doesn't this make the horn stop behaving like a horn? Would a bandpass box be better in a car?
