Shimano just upgraded their nine speed Ultegra set over the years. First came the 6500, then the 6501, then finally the 6510 (2007). They all look slightly different cosmetically. I have 6501s on my two main riders.

If I was buying NOS nine speed Ultegra, I would definitely go for the 6510. In fact, that deal is so good on Chain Reaction, I might buy a set as backup (pretty much all Shimano brifters die eventually).
