I owned a 11' evo MR and now a 13' 1LE...I have also owned an evo 8 MR (mod friendly) and an STi (a pita to do anything serious)...

I can tell you, for me, that the 1LE has been the most fun car to date...the sheer power and the way it stays planted is night and day...

As someone posted already going above 400awhp ( not saying it has not been done) gets a bit hairy on that auto tranny....and if it goes bad your are out some huge bucks...i think somewhere around 12-15k....the 11' evo MR was the worst choice for me...thinking back I should have gone for the GSR but the 5 speed manual with hwy driving was not ideal...

Plus the maintenance on the dual clutch was way too costly for me, every 15k miles recommended...and every awd car I had burned thru tires every 15k miles but I am sure the tire wear and cost will be about the same on the 1LE...

There are some nice companies that do great work for the mitsu platform...so am sure you will have fun...
