Agreed! These cars are famous for engine fires. I bought a 99 GTP a few months back in great shape and it had an engine fire right in that area. The car was totalled even though we put the fire out pretty quickly. The insurance company thinks it was a faulty repair on the valve cover gasket recall but the fuel rails look exactly where the fire burned a hole through the plastic super charger cover. It all worked out good though becuase we got a 2002 just like it in better shape with less miles
