Buying Leica M8 in 2017--does it make sense?

I'm shooting an M9 now but am thinking about a new one. That said, I still have my M8 because it is a niche camera. It's a camera that allows you to take quite good color shots (only 10MP though) but which you can also, without conversion, take very nice handheld IR photos with the right IR filter. Not quite as dramatic as the old Kodak IR film, but quite good and a heck of a lot easier to take than those old IR photos were. All you need is a filter. No conversion, no IR film with a changing bag to load it in. That's makes it worth keeping for me.
