Congratulations PeterGot mine and I really do like it's look, especially with chrome lenses. Also, I had a chrome M8 grip which I am using with the M9 and it looks quite fine, I see no need to get a steel grey grip. While we're at it, it's one heck of a camera! best...Peter
Wow - doesn't that show how far Leica have come in the last 3 years.In three years of a chrome M8, I think I had two people comment on it and it was along the lines of "it's nice to see someone still using a film camera." During last week-end in Naples, Italy, I had three people ask me if that was the new M9 and saying how nice the grey finish looked and no, they weren't muggers checking if it was worth stealing.

Jono we had the steel grey in Oregon and it was very nice looking. Brad wanted to buy it on the spot but it was a loaner so a no go from Leica. I'm more a black camera person but I did like itCongratulations Peter
I'm hoping for mine next week . . . . hoping!
Brad - thanks for those shots, it makes the waiting for the grey so much easier :ROTFL:
all the best
