98 900SET Auto 65.2K mi - what else should I plan for?

Hi,
Just spent $1375.00 on the latest round of repairs including new muffler, rear shocks, front brakes (incl. new rotors), new tranny washers. The DI already went bad last year at 58,200 mi. (and LONG before I ever heard of a DI or saw on the DIY sites how easy it would have been to replace). Had my 60K mile maint. service done. Rear tires replaced last Dec. and I now need new front tires. Original Serp belt went bad at 44,680 mi.
So what ELSE should I 'plan' for? What other things will go bad?
[As I've been muttering lately, "Who needs a 'money-pit' house when you can buy a Saab and throw all your money into maintaining that?"... grumble.]
