i know. apples and oranges comparison in terms of specs and features. am really more interested in the costs of owning one or the other. since they are relatively close in price, which one should i go for? very important factors that will sway my decision:

- ave fuel consumption for city driving since i don't go out of town that much. mahal ang gas e. daily driver lang ito. house <-> office lang mostly.
- maintenance (service & most especially, parts) considering that these vehicles both look "high tech" to me. like, may "special" maintenance ba for vehicles with airbags? (sorry, first time ko magkakaroon ng auto na may ganito . yung lancer 7 yata airbag.) any other "special" services needed for the vehicles?
- resale, since i intend to keep the vehicle for at least 5 years. i obviously like to recover a reasonable amount on my investment.
- other costs like registration and insurance? malaki kaya difference?

any inputs would be highly appreciated. thanks in advance!
