Found a perfect Leica M for me

[Krosya]

I found this Leica M6 when checking out some pics on flickr. If I could only get my hands on one of these..............
Does anyone have any info on it? It looks like M6 styled as M3. Even a window that illuminates framlines looks like M3's. I wonder if viewfinder is made the same as M3 - the old style. IMO its the best one. Well for me anyway. here is a photo:

I have never seen one like it. Wonder how much I could get one like it for?

Looks great.

If you check out his "my gear" he has a 16 hologon and an MP6? Whats an MP6? Is it just a a la carte?

Yeah, I did look at it - he's got some awsome cameras and lenses. I'm scared to even think how much it all cost. But if I had to choose something from his setup - I'd take this M6j. I'm in love with that camera. But even if I had the money (which who knows how much it costs), I wouldn't know where to find it. I'm not checking Arsenal - if they have it - it would cost 4x as much as it would elsewhere.
I'll just dream of it for now. Maybe one day.......

I much prefer the look of the LHSA MP3 over the M6J. Essentially an MP with M3 styling, including the non-fresnel frameline illumination window, dog ear strap lugs, M2 frame counter, and traditional script engraving. Just my opinion, but I don't care for the M3 styling on a camera with the modern angled rewind crank. That guy's got some nice gear, though, heh?
