As you probably know, the British folks at McLaren introduced a new model in the range, namely the 650S. It is an evolution of the MP4-12C and according to sources, the new model managed to put a halt on 12C’s production.

There is no confirmation from the carmaker but the high demand for the new 650S might influenced the company to focus on producing the new model.
