Toyota should give 15K off on the 1.6E right now. They had a bigger discount last month. The Lancer has a 50K discount. This makes the price different between the two cars at a bit over 120K.

On paper, the Lancer actually looks better... 2 airbags v. 1, disc brakes front and back (Altis has drums behind), better legroom on the drivers seat for the Lancer (unless you get a 1.6G)....

On actual inspection, Lancer build quality is so so. Checked out the alignment of the door to the body (look at the top half of the front doors near the center pillar), and the fit of the parts of the dash board. Basically, fit and finish I give to the Corolla.

Test drive, the Lancer is decidedly the sportier perkier car, the Altis has better noise insulation.

What I am not sure off with the Lancer is durability. We had the 78, 89, 94 and 99 Galants. The first two were great cars... the last two developed suspension problems. Basically, since 1999, everything we have gotten has been a Toyota branded vehicle, because of our experience with the last two Galants.

On the other hand a 635K, well, it is a really great bargain.

I am deciding between a Altis 1.6G and a Lancer 1.6 GLX myself, well unless the Honda dealer can get me another 1.8S from the plant. I have to get the G variant since the divers seat can adjust more in the G than the E.

go for the corolla. if you can squeeze the budget a little more, get the "g" variant instead. although the "e" variant is still a good choice but with lesser features.
