Springing for both would indeed be downright silly unless this is a collectible car that's in bad shape. If it's an old Corvette or MG, that changes the playing field, but if it's 1980 Ford Escort....
I think the most likely theft scenario here is kids out joyriding or a neighborhood person that needs to go from point A to B and doesn't want to take the bus. Those are the cases that LoJack was designed for.

Hondas aren't stolen for joyrides, and should that CRX disappear, it's going to the chopshop.
I'd get both. Lojack will help recover it more quickly, the VIN etching will ensure the chopshop doesn't profit from your loss.
