When you're known as THE place to see the best spy photos of anything auto, you get a lot of people sending you their favorite UFO-Style stories and photos and want us to publish them.



And as you can imagine (well, I don't think you can), we get some REAL beauties!

But every once in a while we find a budding star.

Today is that day.

Our new friend and AutoSpies.com contributor Michael Leonhard has really got the goods!

You've probably seen his take on the 2010 Dodge Charger (See associated article) but my assignment for him was a little more selfish.

I did an article a while back asking if the biggest mistake BMW made on the new M3 was not offering it in the traditional 2 or 3 LOUD, IN YOUR FACE colors.

BMW M3 Color Article

I love the new BMW M3 but I wish I could order one in a wicked cool color like in these pics from Michael.

SHOULD BMW add one or two of these colors to the order guide?

Check out our exclusive photo mockups you won't see ANYWHERE else (of course until every one of our competitors steals them and posts them as theirs!)

About Michael Leonhard in his own words...

Well, I am a car nut and I love what I do, and I do it with heart and soul.
I am 31 years old and have been active in car styling & design for 10 years now.
My activities have included car designs for magazines, after market and private customers so far.
To me car design offers a lot of personal expression.
Action, passion, enthusiasm and emotion are part of my personality in connection with car design.
Coming visible in the creative process through designs and works.
It's also a kind of lifestyle. Creativity makes life better.
Besides automotive design I am also interested and active in other genres, that are further connected with cars and lifestyle.
I love Hot Rod and Custom Culture and I create low brow art (kustom kulture artworks).
These movements are very creative and progressive and in the past it often happend that auto makers took inspiration from this scene for concept and production cars.
Generally I think, besides creating a balanced and good design, giving a car an highly emotional touch is crucial. A object that awakes desire, a thing that carries the power of dreams."
