Blake Griffin’s dunk over Kia Optima in 2011 is one of the most iconic moments of his life. From this moment, Blake started his journey as the Kia Ambassador. He auctioned off the Kia Optima on AutoTrader.com. The money was given to the charitable program called Stand Up to Cancer.

That said, the Kia Optima was discontinued after its run in 2020. It was replaced by a more stunning-looking and capable midsize K5 model. The estimated value for the 2011 Kia Optima Sedan with a gas engine is as low as $6,900. However, it can take a jump depending on the trim configuration.

The 2.4L Inline-4 is the standard engine which is coupled with either a 6-speed manual transmission or 6-speed automatic transmission. It supplies 200 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque. The Kia Optima with the automatic gearbox does . For more power, 274 horsepower making 2.0L Turbo Inline-4 is also available which helps the Optima cross the 60 MPH mark 1.4 seconds quicker than the base engine.

This arrangement allows the GMC Denali to accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH in 6.8 seconds and provides a combined fuel economy of 16 MPG. Furthermore, a diesel engine can be selected as well. Some potential rivals of the full-size GMC Yukon Denali SUV are top-tier trims of the Ford Expedition SUV, the Chevrolet Tahoe SUV, and the Toyota Sequoia SUV. 

2. Tesla Model S

Launch of the Model S started a maelstrom that no one can avoid and over the years, the popularity of this exotic electric sedan is still high.

That is why, you can see several Hollywood celebrities such as Harrison Ford, professional athletes like Blake Griffin, and more riding it with pride.

It is impossible to deny that a big chunk of fame and recognition that Blake Griffin received is because of his dating history with supermodel and internet sensation Kendall Jenner. Both have been snapped in the Rolls-Royce Wraith multiple times.

The Wraith has been discontinued in the USA after the 2021 model year. Having said that, the 2021 Rolls-Royce Wraith Coupe had a base price of $344,500. The Black Badge trim asked for $395,500.
