Default Front End Bushings

Its probably the front end bushings on the upper and lower control arms! I have the same problem with my 00. A new kit was about $40 and $200 for labor at my local shop to get it repaired!

Does the car do this even after a wash?

Like other said seems like bushing... Should be easy to check...
