If Saturn does this then it losses its already weak and fragile identity. The only way I see that this might would is if

GMC = Classy Chevy Trucks/SUVs
Pontiac = Sporty Cars
Saturn = Efficient Cars
Buick = Entry Luxury

Each with only 3 or so models in their line up.
That is the only way I can see this working

This is what I have suggested from the beginning and it is a change for them to reduces overlap, because now you can't have the Aura and G6 on the same dealership now can you, unless you gave one a sporty engine and the other an efficient engine, but you wouldn't have both with the same engine thusly no overlap.

CadiEldo kinda beat me too this, but I like his ideas except Saab with Chevy. Personally I don't think that there is room for Saab in the United States. Hummer was a bad idea altogether and now just needs to go away.
