In the days when they were still being made, reports were that there was no difference in sharpness between the 135mm Planar and Xenotar. The Planar was much more expensive, thus there are a lot more Xenotars around.

There's also a 150/2.8 Xenotar. An extra half stop couldn't hurt.
Morgan,
Are you referring to the later version with T coating. I don't think you could compare that lens to a xenotar. Kerry Thallman makes mention of this lens on his future classics review.
