Leica offered my Leica M9P an A-La-Carte for €100, shall I take it?

Slightly bitter here in the U.S.A.

 

I saw the a-la-carte program for the M240 and inquired if I could pay to gave the khaki/green leather put on my silver chrome camera.  I was told no by our U.S. rep., that it would look too much like a Safari M240.  On the other hand, if you live in Europe, they actually solicit this type of service.

 

Arrrgh!

That's weird. Why would Leica care about how much your camera resembles a special edition Leica?
