I must just be lucky as hell here, but I have a very early 99 9-3 base (bought in early June of 1998) with 130K miles on it and I have yet to have anything resembling a head gasket issue. It seems like if it was going to be a problem for me, I would have had it by now (though i did replace me first DIC at 126K). Now I am questioning whether I should pull the valve cover and check the bolts. But if it isn't broke.....
