Not impressed with HK system for the quality and price of this car. Thoughts?

It can be retrofitted I think, but it's not worth it. The cost is huge because, among other things, the stupid "diamond dome" tweeters are priced higher than actual top tweeters in the world ($850 each MSRP). If you are going to spend that kind of money on the system you could get an elite aftermarket setup.
It might be B&W, but honestly B&W is super overrated and there's nothing in the midrange or 8" underseat woofers to indicate they are much different than the HK ones.
You're in Florida so I don't know who is a real pro in that area if you want to go aftermarket. I would reach out to Nick Apicella @ Vanguard Automotive and see who he recommends local to you. You can probably reach him through his site or on the DiyMobileAudio forum as SkizeR. I have no affiliation at all with him, but I've lurked there for a very long time and he's one of the only people I would ever let design and install a system in a car like that.
