As for the price difference, I don't have a Scots name for nothing. However there's a difference between what I can afford to spend and what I'm willing to spend. I started with the Leica M10 when looking for an alternate camera for travel. I could easily afford to by an M10, but was unwilling to spend that kind of money on an M10. Time and testing will tell whether I think I'm willing to spend an extra $1100. The Fuji will need to make a compelling argument.
I use an M240 with a 50 Summilux, 35 Summilux, 90 Summicron, and 21 mm f/1.8 (Cosina Voightländer) for travel and walk around shooting. I love it. My DSLRs are still an important part of my photographic life, but the Leica system is so much lighter, and don't really sacrifice on FF image quality. Carrying the same optical capabilities in my Nikon kit would probably weight 3-4 times as much and require a large backpack, rather than a tiny man-bag.
M10 is expensive, but you can get M240s for a lot less now. Might be worth considering along with some good Zeiss, Leica, or CV optics.
