I'd like the Bessa R2S in chrome if it were actually chrome instead of
silver spray paint. I have a black body and a handful of chrome Nikkor
lenses. Even an olive green R2S would look better than black.

The seller (in HK) is also selling a couple bodies on
the auction site, but they apparently aren't as
popular @ around $800.  I do like the fact that the
Rollei bodies are silver/chrome, the way God intended
RFs to be, rather than the Bessa R2, which is only
available in black & colors like, egads, olive!    ;-)
 I still don't know why Cosina never offered the R2-C
in chrome since the vast majority of Contax RF lenses
(& a good percentage of Nikon RF glass) are chrome.
