Thoughts on a MP4 over 650S
Just wanna know you guys thoughts. Price on MP4's seems to be declining heavily and worth the coin at the moment.

MP4, as in a McLaren F1 car? 
IMHO you will not miss much in terms of daily driving on public roads by going with a 12C over a 650S. For the price differential, I would buy a 12C and be happy all day long. The 650S interior is a bit different, and you might enjoy the extra 57 (!) lb-ft of torque that the 650S offers, but I personally would not be able to overcome the price difference to justify a new 650S.

Actually, the 650S interior is identical to the 12C.
I drove both extensively before choosing the 12C. The 650S is 5% better in every way - the price is 120k higher. Take the 12C all day long. Best money for performance in a street car right now. My only complaint with the 12C is brakes. The 650S ceramics are fantastic.
