This is true. There are plans to begin a "custom M
camera" program in the autumn. Some call it "Leica a
la carte."

In a way, the LUG may share some of the credit for
this as I believe the idea was tossed around right
here about a year and a half ago, when people pointed
out that this is what some computer manufacturers
offer already.

So, for example, one may be able to order an M7 with
the old-style advance lever sans plastic tip. Right
now there's no way to achieve that.
