The 60K service kit is $153 at site sponsors (like thesaabsite.com). That is for the I-4. For the V-6, it is a bit higher because of the camshaft belt change.
Doing this service is pretty easy. It will take you an afternoon if you are very careful and haven't done it before and about 2 hours if you have done it before.
Personally, from this point forward (for the 120K maintenance), I will do the plugs, belt, and filters myself, then bring it to my independent mechanic to get the coolant and brake fluid flush. Those jobs are pretty messy and I don't have a good way to dispose of the old fluids.
