Wheel hop?
On my new to me 99 Bonneville with 82K miles I noticed when I'm making a hard left or right or even in a straight line takeoff (not flooring it but giving it more than the normal gas) it will chirp the tires then start to bounce/vibrate till I let off the gas, .(its embarrasing) I don't think this normal and if it's actually some sort of wheel hop or not... But I still need to know what to check or replace to get it to stop.

Check the lower control arm bushings, they are notorios for wearing out.
