So McLaren has yet to deliver any MP4-12C's (although maybe by now they have) so far and due partly to the lackluster response of automotive journalists they have tweaked the car a bit. They say they have revised the steering and "improved" the sound.

So my question is will we ever get to see these changes in the game?

As the car is in the game it seems closer to a prototype or concept car since it doesnt totally represent the final build of the car or what customers will get, although it must be very close.

They definately had a confused launch for this car having it reviewed far before selling any. I'm guessing they decided to push back the launch date at the last minute.

Anyway I'm quite curious as to how the new setup feels.
 
They have sold a few now... You can find examples on AutoTrader.co.uk going for around £250,000 👍

I don't think the changes are that "BIG" to change the way the car feels in the game... so I don't think you would notice the difference - in a game anyway... In the real car you would probably notice the difference...

EDIT: I didn't give you an answer... No I don't think it will be implemented in GT5

The Spec 2.0 physics update alone improve the handling of the MP14-12C (and it does with almost every car in GT5).
 
Of all priorities and things in need of fixing, a few tweaks to one car is not high priority. This is something PD would fix if they somehow managed to fix everything else in the game first. So no, do not expect to ever see a revision to the McLaren.

Edit: though I wouldn't be terribly shocked if PD just released a new one as DLC, still not likely though.
