  Vios.
  
  For maintenance and reliability. Also better value at re-sale.

  Madza is also not shoddy in reliability. We've had no problems with our car or with the dealer. They are actually evenly matched, it boils down to where you want your speedometer to be, and whether you want a hatchback or saloon body.

  Resale value? I dont think so dude. Simple Economics, Supply in no time will be more than demand in the 2nd hand market. M2 on the road are still less than Vios.

  Well said. Another car worth considering is the Mitsu Colt. But gearbox is a bit dodgy.... but what the heck, its under C & C warranty. 1.5L wise, the Colt has the most features.

  Mazda 2 (Auto) is about 5 k more than Vios (Auto). I rather go for Vios.
