Emmanuel Luria: 2015 Kia Optima

When Emmanuel Luria first took the 2015 Kia Optima out of the dealer, he with no intention of modifying it. "One thing led to another," he mentions, "the tints weren't enough. The rims weren't enough. Then the coilovers weren't enough." It was at that moment when Luria realized that he rarely saw a modified Kia Optima on the road, and he wanted to be different. "So I teamed up with Fresh Upgrade, CP Auto Styles and Stance Garage Works," Luria states, "and came out with what this car currently looks like."
