This unforgettable redemption story with Tigran (Tony) Kyuregyan dives into immigrant resilience, classic car culture, grief, brotherhood, and the transformational power of generosity. In this raw and deeply emotional conversation, Tony shares how arriving in America at seven years old shaped his hunger, how street life and anger nearly defined his path, and how giving—especially giving away his late brother’s 1962 Impala Super Sport—became the ultimate act of love and healing.

Tony’s story begins with sacrifice.

At 13 years old, he bought his first car for $50—and gave it to his mom. That tells you everything about his heart. But life wasn’t easy. Challenges hardened him. Anger grew. The streets called. Pain has a way of turning into armor.

And then everything shifted.

Tony discovered something most people spend a lifetime chasing: giving is more powerful than receiving.

I met Tony through my friend Vince Culliver, who had fallen in love with a ’62 Impala Tony was giving away on Instagram. To be honest, when I first saw it, I didn’t believe it was real. Who gives away a fully restored 1962 Impala Super Sport?

But this wasn’t just any car.

The Impala belonged to Tony’s brother—who passed away just a year ago.

That detail changes everything.

This wasn’t about attention. This wasn’t about marketing. This was about honoring his brother’s legacy through love. It was about turning grief into generosity. It was about proving that pain doesn’t have to make you bitter—it can make you better.

Meeting Tony in person, seeing his humility, his loyalty, and the way he carries his brother’s memory forward through Bad Habits Car Club, was one of the most powerful experiences I’ve had.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Armenian immigrant success in America

• Losing a brother and processing grief

• Overcoming anger and street life

• Classic car culture and the 1962 Impala Super Sport

• The power of paying it forward

• Faith, family, loyalty, and legacy

• How generosity transforms both the giver and the receiver

Tony Kyuregyan doesn’t just build cars. He builds legacy. He builds community. He builds hope.

This is more than a car giveaway story.
This is about redemption.
This is about brotherhood.
This is about love expressed through action.

If you believe in second chances, honoring family, and using your platform to lift others—this conversation will move you.
