Congratulations on the 2001 Aero.
We have have driven the same car since 2004. It now has 110,000 miles. I agree with most of the recommendations you've received so far. That said, the only three significant issues we've had were a failed NSS at 50K, a recalled IDM and two failed pulleys on the serpentine belt. Both the first and last items stranded us temporarily. All other major engine components, suspension, fuel system, transmission etc are OEM. One other suggestion, learn and perform the 60,000 mile interval major services yourself. I've done this, now twice, with this car and our other 2001 LPT. Its fun, saves money, and gives you the assurance that you're maintaining your vehicle according to the SAAB standards.
