60 k on civic , what goes wrong?

I just bought a 02 civic coupe, automatic, 60 k miles. Runs and drives good. What kinds of things should I be doing or looking out for to go wrong on this car at this point in time?
I believe in preventive maintenence.( plugs, ignition coils, tranny fluid, timing belt, water pump, alternator?) ( BTW I just converted to honda From saturn). Does this have timing belt or chain on it? Serpintine belt?
Thanks

change trans fluid with honda atf

new plugs (dont bother with the coils, they are a lifetime part and either work perfectly or dont work at all)

coolant maybe? brake fluid if its been 3 yrs since last time?

belts and timing stuff wait until 100k miles. it has a timing belt.
