I would also say that Buick buyers are probably more loyal to Buick than Saturn buyers are to Saturn (just a thought, not backed by any fact).

Saturn is a low-end brand and margins are probably smaller than those of Buick or the other arms of GM. That's what this really comes down to - who can make money for GM.
Thats it's biggest problem. On higher end products its easy to make one car unique from another. But there is little real difference between a Malibu, a G6, and an Aura. Same with the Outlook vs Traverse. But there is a difference between those two and an Enclave..
