Do you know if the rebate will apply to the new M6 as well?

there is a new variation of the M6.  The new body will have a completely
redesigned veiwfinder with enhanced brightlines and a magnification of .85%.
Removing the 28mm finder allows for the increase in magnification from 72%
to 85%, still not as high as the M3 @ 91%. The current M6 is still in
production as the new body will be available in black only. To designate
between the two bodies there will be a small etching in the glass of the
veiwfinder that states 85 mag. or something to that sort."
