over the magic 100K mile mark. You could get 100K miles out of your car with only oil changes...easy. If you kept your car...you will regret it. If you sell your car, someone else will. I tend not to keep my cars very long, but I do keep the maintenance up on them for the next guy.
Change the brake fluid, because it absorbs water and changing it helps reduce corrosion.
Change your coolant, even though they make 100K mile coolant. Have you seen a vehicle with that red coolant at 50K mile that someone hasn't changed? I have and it was beginning to look like pond water. Same deal, you need to keep it clean to prevent corrosion for the long haul.
SAAB suggests these maintenance intervals for a reason, that's why there are so many high-mileage SAABs out there. Go to the C900 board and ask what the highest mileage SAAB is. I'm sure it will surprise you.
