The 21 f/4.5 Biogon does have a bad color shift on the M9, but for B&W
it's fine.  Cornerfix also takes care of it, but I don't use that for
B&W unless I'm stitching.

I don't think the Super Elmar-M 21 f/3.4 was out when I purchased the
21 Biogon.  I think my 24 Super Elmar-M is amazingly good, so that
Leica 21mm f/3.4 might be the one I'd look at first for good color or
as the closest competitor to the 21 4.5 Biogon.
