Whenever a new model comes out then the previous model becomes so wonderful that it deserves a premium over the new junk that Leica foists on us. Look at the worship of the M4 versus the M6; you can sometimes buy an M6 TTL for less than a clean M4P. Quality of the old versus what, five years of Passport warranty. So, work like crazy over the Christmas break and buy yourself an M6 of Hexar if you want a motor and AE. Better yet, work really hard and buy the wide angle you've been lusting after. Don't go for the 15, go for the 24 or 21 ASPH, either of those are more useful more of the time than a 15 which takes special circumstances to effectively use.
