  • @TheSmokingTire My car starts with 268HP and if it has 66,000 mi on it and is 5 years old about how much power would it have. Its an 06 avalon touring. We got the black on black. My Esprit from Lotus is better

  • @kingsomething2008

    they had to remove it from the tire wall, find a replacement part, remove the old one, and put the new one on

  • The problem starts with V and ends with W
