Mitsubishi Lancer 1.6 GLS vs Honda City 1.5 E

Price difference (of around 75k without discounts) aside, these two cars are almost the same. Everything else considered, which car do you guys think is the better buy? Details to focus on are the following (no particular order):

- passenger comfort (interior space)
- ride quality (suspension, etc)
- engine performance (for sudden overtaking)
- fuel consumption (1.6 CVVT vs 1.5 AT)
- maintenance cost

Car will be used in the metro and weekend trips to Pampanga. Usual passengers/drivers will be the parents (early 60s). Exterior design is not much of a concern as this is relative anyway but my dad wants disc brakes with the rear wheels (dunno why, hindi naman mapapansin yun unless bumabaha). A/T requirement is a given.

With discounts, Mitsubishi gives the Lancer at around 700k while Honda sticks to its given price list. Is the approx 120k difference worth it?

Thanks!
