How to compare two json objects using angularjs?

I have two json objects

 $scope.car1={"Sedan":{"Audi":["A4","A3"]},"Hatchback":{"Maruthi":["Swift"]}}; 
  $scope.car2={"Hatchback":{"Maruthi":["Swift"]},"Sedan":{"Audi":["A3","A4"]}};

I want to compare these two objects. I tried the following code:

var a=angular.equals($scope.car1,$scope.car2);

Since angular.equalsdo a deep comparison it also care about the order of data. Is there any way to compare objects regardless of the order?

Implement a custom "recursive equalizer" that distinct if array is associative or not:
for associative => equalize keys, for arrays => sort array & equalize elements.

written the function myEqual() at this plunker

'Objects' do not have an order. angular.equals will compare values using their keys.
