2000 Pontiac Grand Prix 6 cyl Automatic 125,00 miles

i have a 2000 pontiac grand prix gtp. when i start the car, the idle is a little rough. When you hit 3000 rpms, the car shakes and sputters. Also, if i drive it somewhere, turn off the car even for five minutes, the car will not start again for a couple of hours. it will just start, sputter, and turn off. What do you think is wrong?
