Oil Change Question

Hi,
I'm getting ready to changed the oil in my 1999 9-3SE. I've reviewed a lot of older posts regarding recommendations and whatnot, but I was curious if you need to put a 9-3 on ramps or anything in order to easily get to the oil pan and filter?
Also, I know this usually opens up a large box of varied opinions, but any rec on an oil weight? The car has around 42K miles on it and I know the previous owner used regular oil...likely 10W-30 or so.
I'll probably go to a synth or semi-synth, but was curious what weight is appropriate for someone who does a fair amount of city driving, doesn't push the car too hard, and lives in a non-winter climate (Bay Area, California).
Thanks-
RRT
