ice climbing and mountaineering trips on the cheap leave you sleeping in the car A LOT. my advice, for an in car sleeping bag, is to go with a synthetic, not a down. It's cheaper, better when wet, and you're not concerned with weight or bulk. Unlike tents, cars don't breathe. In cold weather you'll wake up with a layer of frost over everything in the car which will get things wet when you turn the heat on. This happens even in dry climates because of exhaled moisture. As long as it's not dumping snow, you can leave the windows open (1 person in the car = 4 windows each 1/4 down; 2 people in the car = 4 windows 1/2 down) and you should be good.

A -30 down bag will cost you $600 or more. If you are using it in the car, the extra weight and space does not matter. I would not carry this bag. If you are just going to use it in a car, then get it. You can't beat the price.

I don't think you would need something quite like this, since you are out of the wind and are off the ground, but you will be hard pressed to find a bag suited for colder conditions. A -30F bag is about as warm as they come. You might want to consider a down bag, since they are warmer, and take up less space, which might be a plus on a longer trip. You won't be getting it too wet in the car, so down seems like a better option.
