Well as we speak. Mine is in having two new rear wheel bearing in it.
Most of the stuff is high milage stuff. Keep the oil changed, trans oli changed and supercharger oil changed.
There are a lot of guys that will help add to this list. :lol2:

i really hope people can add to that list, because i just got this car today, and already my driver side window stopped working, and my passenger side window somehow got off track a little bit so it doesn't go all the way down.... then i just found out that my driver and passenger seats don't lock back, like when ppl want to get in and out of the back, there suppose to flip that little black lever, well these just fly forward, those buttons don't work.. was there any recalls on 1999 GTP coupes?

Just my 2 cents. :2cents:
The following if never serviced or replaced:

Clean and/or replace air filter
Replace spark plugs and wires
Replace fuel filter
Clean throttle body, intake screen and MAF sensor
Check valve cover gaskets for leaks
Check for leaks intake manifold gaskets
Inspect disc pads and rotors
Clean and/or replace forward and aft 02 sensors
Check CAT convertor for efficiency and possible clogging
Replace struts (all four) if poor ride quality
Check condition of serpentive drive belt
Check condition of supercharger drive belt
Check condition/age of Dexcool coolant, replace and flush cooling system
Replace PCV valve

Congratulations and good luck!
