Need Advice!!!!!!!

OK, I've got a '03 Aero with 94k miles. I bought the car in March of '08 with 57k miles and drive about 20-25k per year. Over the last 9 months or so, I've spent a small fortune keeping the car running. Here's what's been done (not including brakes, tires, ATF flush, oil changes, etc.):
1. Ignition Cassette
2. Throttle Body
3. Fuel Pump
4. Door/Window Assembly
5. Oil Pressure Sending unit
And today the car is in for an Alternator. I've heard that #'s 1, 2, 3 are generally the most expensive parts to replace on this car, but I'm fearful that there will be more to do that I've yet to think about. I drive many miles for work and need reliability and can't be stranded on the interstate in the middle of nowhere and miss a meeting. Any opinions on what I should do with this thing? I love the car, and have Saabs all my life and understand that some of this stuff comes with the territory but I don't at what point I should throw in the towel. Any thoughts are welcome. Please help...
