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.

Through that injection pump out the window!
I have an 05 PD and with a turbo and tune came in at 157hp and 267 tq, it is a lot of fun in Vancouver traffic. 330,000km and still pulling hard. Gives me 42mpg no matter how much coal I roll
