Buick has been the best of the bunch for quality, something that Detroit
could use a little more of.

It's my understanding that Buick will be kept. It is considered one of
GM's "core" brands, along with Chevrolet, Cadillac, and GMC. Pontiac
will be shrunk to a niche brand, and Saturn, Hummer, and Saab will be
gone.


When Saturn was first announced, I had high hopes for the idea. I've not
followed the brand, but it seems to have fallen flat. I wonder why.

No loss on Hummer, and Saab has become just another car brand, instead
of a low volume manufacturer that appealed to iconoclasts.
