the lancer ex is significantly more spacious except sa trunk space. the base model is quite loaded compared to other compacts. you get a touch screen display thats gps ready and may good news pa about this. you can buy a cheap micro sd card, download the files in the net and the gps will be fully functional with voice assistance. micro sd card nalang gagastusan mo. 200-300 pesos lang compared sa casa na 6k. the city is more fuel efficient though being a smaller car. also, in terms of reliability toyota and honda are on top. but mitsu is a good name too so no need to worry. its not a china car.

if i were to get the city, i wouldnt get the modulo variant. ive seen one in person and i think it looks bad. better to keep it bare stock nalang. but if you really want some modifications on the exterior, have it done by aftermarket shops. yung modulo ed ng honda +60k sa 1.5L variant eh. luging lugi ka talaga.

between the two, id pick the lancer ex. but both cars are good. its just that you get more bang for the buck sa lancer ex. when i bought mine may -26k discount for the A/T and -50k++ for the M/T. so ang lumalabas 778k for the manual 829k for the automatic. balita ko the discounts are even bigger now. in terms of fuel consumption its one of the better ones in its segment. power isnt disappointing either. consider the accent crdi and the elantra rin. happy shopping.
