I would modify the M2 because it has a wonderful VF.

The M6 VF can show 28mm brightlines. I use a 28mm on a .72 M6 very often 
and have no problems with it, but I wouldn't recommend it if you wear 
glasses as the brightlines are at the outer edge of the viewing field.

I guess you're from Germany? Check out this address, they might help you 
further: Fototechnik Kielgas, Baumstr. 19, 30171 Hannover, 0511-814699,

Or ask Leica, Solms, directly.
