2006 Toyota Corolla S or 2005 Honda Civic LX?

I am a student and a new buying. I found two cars that I am interested in and need help choosing which one would be better. There is a 05 honda cvic lx automatic with 59k and 1.7 engine. Then there is a manual 2006 toyota corolla S with 53k and 1.8 engine. Which one is better as in speed, gas, just overall better quality? I have heard manuals save you more gas and are faster..
