I did crave this at one time.

I owned a Spyder in the mid 60's. It was an absolute ball to drive. Unfortunately is frequently broke parts and they were expensive to replace. I would love to have one again.
 
An interchangeable lens RF kit. The few RF's I have are fixed lens models.
And also, a 20mm 2.8 Minolta Rokkor.
 
50 years of unlimited supply of any film (that's still available in the market, won't ask too much) and post-in developing+scan service quick enough return time.
Especially the service, more than the film, they're hard to come in places with less film shooter population.

Lightly crave for medium format, but unlikely to be used that much.
 
On occasion I crave a 21mm, would be quite happy with the Zeiss 28/2.8 or Voigtlander 21/1.8.

The reality is knowing I do not need one since I have a Leica 24/3.8 and Voigtlander 28/1.9 and love them both.

Then craving (GAS) can get the best of a lot of us when we least expect it.
 
This is just for the sake of saying, I'll say M9 because I want only M9 i have the rest of the things to go and I like to have it as my second body to M8.2 which is a great camera.
 
Any full-frame digital M. Ideally a latest and greatest M(240) but that's not realistic. So an M9 or M9-P or M-E would do just fine. More than fine. I just need to save, and save, and save... (and never give in to small-GAS, in favour of feeding my larger-GAS).
