Skip the bs and get a tdi. I picked mine up a month ago, and if I were to do all my car buying again.. I would have started with a tdi. 140hp and 240tq after tuning. I have an 05 so mine is a pumpe duse engine, so no injection pump. Personally I'm not 100% on the advantage or disadvantage of not having an injection pump, but coming from my Cummins where injection pumps were not cheap.. I'm liking the direct feed to the injectors.

Similar price to a vr6 I think, probably 3x the fuel mileage, and pretty quick once tuned. Also for easy to moderate wrenching it's all like Lego.

Edit: but if still between a vr6 and rsx, I would go rsx. Unless a real hatchback is more useful to you.
