I sold my x100v within 1 day, above retail price. I have my XE4 for now, and I wanted to wait for the next gen x100v. The x100v is close to perfection - the build is very premium. Looking forward to see what they do with the next gen, I am hoping for IBIS and 30MP+.

I had the chance to use a silver X100V from a guy I know and I can tell do not come even close to the premium build and feel of my Leica M8 or M9P. Considering an X100V goes for around $2000 these days, I think is a fair comparison.

Weird. It feels pretty close to my M10, but maybe even better ergonomics. You don't have to take off the whole bottom plate to swap a battery.

Now way it does… nowhere near the same weight or feel of metal.  Doesn’t mean it’s not a great camera in its own right.  I prefer the weight of Fujis.
