Don't take any chances and get the oil changed. Look at this way, would you rather pay $20 to $30 for an oil change, or $8000 for a premature engine failure?
Some cars have a propensity for oil congealing in the engine. One such model is the Toyota Camary (late 90s, early 2000 models). Another model with a smaller propensity is the Saab 9-3. This is according to Consumer Reports.
As already written, 10,000 miles is a lot for a oil change. Besides, the 2006 model year gives you free mainteinence up to 30,000 miles. I now have 11,000 miles on my 9-3 (2006) and I changed my oil even though my oil indicator claimed I had 35% life left. You should do the same.
