Ford Focus Vs Lancer Gte

Hi guys, need your help to choose between these two cars. First and foremost, I gotta admit that I'm not a car savvy guy. Just a normal guy looking for a car that is quite stylish and highly reliable for peace of mind in the long term.

So my criteria:
1) Got style - I like Lancer, although people may see it a bit outdated since Inspira is around.
2) Comfort for long distance travel
3) Roomy.
4) Reliability, and I mean fairly proven one. And I think Lancer have quite track record for this do they?
5) After sales service. This one is really important too. And I think Ford do offer slightly more attractive service right?

So that's about it. What do you guys think?

Oh if you guys wanna recommend other choice, feel free to chip in. My budget is definitely below 120k.

Thanks everybody

My advise. Ford Focus.
Style. I have no comments. my hot may not be your hot.
Comfort. The Inspira is really noisy on highways (within legal speeds). the Focus is sublime. Their seats are more comfy and the highway road manners i probably best in price range.
Roomy. The Inspira is bigger but not by much
Reliability. Lancer parts are cheaper due to economies of scale
Ford has 3 year free service and 5 year warranty.

Ford has all the safety features you'd every want.
Handles better.

How is Ford reliability nowadays? Many Conti like VW and Audi seems to have many problems be it small or big.

If want Roomy and Comfort I think Nissan Sylphy is best, but shape may not be hot. Cannot have it all.....hahaha

sylphy is so so so so so so so so so so so so ugly....

yes, when compared to the old, it better looking.

but when compared to its rivals......

Thanks for the feedback.

When you said Inspira is noisy do also refer to the new Lancer? I couldn't notice significant noise on Lancer when I test-drove it. Maybe I should try Focus too for comparison, haven't got the time to test one.

And also the reliability part. From what I've gathered so far, Lancer really have the upper hand on this.

Firstly,

Thus Lancer has the favourable history on its side, even though the news clip is rather old one. Moreover, I've got a friend who already is driving a 2012 Focus, and he already had one major problem on its gearbox iinm, which of course have been dealt by Ford smoothly, but really that cast a major doubt in my mind.

And yes I'm aware Ford do has a lot of features. Furthermore I can find some dealer offering Focus at cheaper price (big discount) compared too Lancer. Just browsed through Mudah can easily find one. So this is why I'm kinda divided LOL.

Edit: wow double post. Sorry about that.
