'Anti Panda' Leica M8 with upgraded shutter

I will be receiving this unique Leica M8 from Leica/New Jersey on Friday, hence no photos yet, just my photoshop rendering. :) It has been completely refurbished and updated with the quieter M8.2 shutter, new circuit boards and new top plate with black dot. This one is an unusual factory 'one-off': black with chrome levers (preview, on/off, shutter dial, shutter button) in the so-called 'anti-panda' style, which looks great with either chrome or black lenses. Note: camera does not have M8.2 vulcanite, but Cameraleather Vulcanite C. Includes 39mm and 46mm Leica UV/IR Cut filters, battery, charger, box, software. One year factory warranty. Act fast, this unique M8 won't last at $3100; other used M8s are going for ~$2500 without the one year warranty, and without the shutter upgrade, which is $1300 from Leica.

Does it have the newer, more accurate finder framing lines?

Tempting, but I am poor ATM. Can I do a layaway?
