Yes, if you sell that M4 on the street in Tokyo you may be able to buy
two M6s, but if you look at current prices for used Ms in other places -
I don't think so. Hang onto it - it's a great camera.

thanks for the answer.
Even when I had an m6 for awhile, I was wishing it had AE.
I got involved with the Hexar Rf for awhile there, and it was a major 
ngihtmare, because I thought that my lenses would Work on it, as 
opposed to just Fitting on it.
My m4 is one that when I walk down the street in the city and Japanese 
guys see it, they want to buy it right there. It has so much of the 
black paint rubbed off it. the brass looks so classic. I have a feeling 
I could get 2 m6's if I sell the m4.  It's time for Leica to copy the 
Hexar I think. Same size...with the built in  winder. Crazy.

thanks
