So much difference in the cars in terms of build / quality and such but it's still amazing the performance for dollar spent on the 1LE's

Absolutely. I loved my SS 1LE and it was a very complete and capable sports car (once you got the solid rear cradle bushing in)
I went GT4 for mainly the reasons that I could just not get in the 1LE...
1.) Light weight
2.) Mid engine
3.) PDK
4.) Interior and build quality
5.) Lower center of gravity.
On the performance side, they are pretty close. The GT4 wins out for acceleration, ultimate grip levels (like for like), and rotation feeling/lower center of gravity. The 1LE wins out for ultimate ride comfort and high speed stability (above 120ish) when pressing on, on roads that are not completely smooth.
When you consider pricing, the 1LE hits way above its weight class. Like I noted above though, the one caveat is the solid rear cradle bushings, the SS 1LE doesn't feel as confident in the rear as the GT4 in completly stock form.
