sounds like my car!
Anyway, if the tranny fluid is regularly changed w/Type F, and the filter is changed at the same time, there is no reason to be concerned about a sudden self destruct of the Saab Auto Tranny. Keep an eye on the level and color of the fluid, use the right stuff, Type F only, change the filter regularly, and she will go 200k.
Keep in mind that the 3-speed autos in these cars were not designed for stoplight racing, revving in neutral, etc. While I agree that for performance, the 5-speed is the way to go, I have had Saab 5-speeds that also had issues.
These trannys serve as heat sinks under the engines, and require significantly more regular attention than other set-ups.
