The current HIFI system (which is now the base system) only has 8 speakers. There are no rear tweeters....just full range 4 inchers.

The HK will add the tweeters, better speakers and better amp and it will be "tuned" better. It is definitely worth it in my opinion and will not add any significant weight over the base system.

If you are going to shed the sound system for weight reasons or upgrade it, then just get the base system...otherwise I'd go the HK.

Just want to add that I have had cars with both systems, so I'm not basing my opinion on a short demo of each system. Oh, and both have 8 inch woofers....not sixers. That was the pre 9/2010 build cars with LoFi system.
