As for the meter sensitivity, the latest 'classic' M6's have the same sensitivity as the TTL models. I have one of those (from 1999), and when I bought it, I compared the technical specifications in the manual with the ones from my 1989 M6 and the light meter in the newer one is indeed 1EV more sensitive then in the older one.
