Me too. I have owned various Cosina/Voigtlander lenses during my M days, 
and have always found them much superior to the decades-old Leica 
offerings. Unless you have a sentimental attachment to Wetzlar, I see no 
reason to buy anything except the modern Leica glass or C/V glass, 
depending on budget.
