any key cutter place can cut you a key but it will only open the doors, wont start it due to the immobiliser. you will need a new key from Mitsibishi i would imagine as the key needs to comed with the transponder in it and then it will need to be mated to your car.

on BMW's its a series of tuening ignitions on/off, locking/unlocking in a specific order which can be done yourself but most garages should code it for you there and then FOC if you bought the key from them.
