It's lightweight for its size and as somebody else already said, not bad aerodynamically for a sedan. I think there's a plenty of potential there.
IIRC, GM was having trouble trying to make Saturn profitable; The brand was spending crazy amounts of money. Frankly, I'm also not sure what the point of Saturn was. GM already had Geo as their "import fighter" brand.

Neat cars, but the brand doesn't make sense to me and I can't fault GM for killing it off.
