Hi Guys!

I'm about to buy my first car & I would like to ask for your expert opinion & experiences.

My choices are narrowed down between 2014 Toyota Altis 1.6 G (AT) VS 2014 Honda City 1.5 VX (AT).

I am aware that I'm comparing apples-to-lemons but I have test drove the Mazda 3, Elantra, & Vios and I have my reasons to eliminate them on my choices. All others (Sylphy, Civic, Accent, Jazz, ).

Here are my criteria:
--
1. comfort (driver) & handling
2. fuel efficiency
3. I intend to keep this 8-10 years.
4. cheaper cost of ownership
5. Looks


* I am a bachelor so cabin space is not much of a factor for me.... yet. Just for me and my gf to use.
* 99% will be used for City Driving (Makati-MOA-Fort/BGC). Moderate-Heavy traffic I guess.



--- Based on my opinion & experience

2014 Toyota Altis 1.6 G - CVT * 935K ***Pros

- bigger, more space (compact vs sub-compact)
- looks better than honda city, IMO
- 1.6 engine & 7-speed CVT
- better comfort & handling ?
- cheaper maintenance ?
- availability of parts
- toyota corolla is tested & proven over time, so better mileage ?

2014 Honda City 1.5 VX - CVT * 880K ***Pros

- cheaper price
- higher resale value ?
- more fuel efficient ?
- touch screen & built-in reverse camera
- the metallic dark brown color really looks good!



Please help me choose masters.
